ABOUT RESIDENT

★Se Afilan Tijeras ★ Artist & Journalist★

Hi! I am an artist and journalist. My main mediums are linoleum, comics, etching and illustration. Se Afilan Tijeras is my artistic signature.
 

I was born in Medellín, Colombia, and moved to  USA. I love my country and latina roots. My artwork is created through this perspective. I have explored the themes of the feminine, gender violence, the power to heal, resilience and relationships within nature.

I am also interested in the questioned relationship between Global North-South and economy dynamics. Besides making my personal artwork, I work as a Teaching Artist and I am pursuing to become a Community Artist as well. I keep learning everyday.
