Eliana Barela
Nueva Mexicana Multidisciplinary Artist
Raised in Tomé, New Mexico, my visual language blossoms from the roots of Nuevo Mexicano culture and deep religious traditions. Themes of devotion appear as questions, invitations into identity, belief, and becoming.I aim to explore my personal and familial story in New Mexico. My work is rooted in legacies paying homage to a history that lives in blood, memory, and paint.
