Embracing the Intersections of Identity: Interview with Artist Albany Andaluz (EP.15)
For the 15th episode of AW CLASSROOM, Kiara Cristina Ventura interviews multidisciplinary artist and musician, Albany Andaluz. In the interview, Andaluz speaks about her identities and cultural backgrounds and how they result in multidimensional artworks. She also speaks on her nomadic experience moving to Mexico during the pandemic. Now temporarily based Dominican Republic, the artist ends the interview with an exclusive art performance just for us here at AW!
*FYI there are roosters in the background of this interview so if you hear some cock-a-doodle-dooing in the background it's our rooster friends haha*
.....
Albany Andaluz (b. 1995, Bronx, New York) uses colloquialisms to draw intersections between Caribbean, Latin American, and American experiences. A life-taught artist, her practice reflects a repurposed, multidisciplinary approach with works that resurrect discarded textiles as mixed-media sculptures, paintings, and photographs to allude to the intersections of conflict, migration, and settlement. Andaluz’s practice examines the psychosocial and socioeconomic shifts that happen during the process of acculturation through the intertwining of techniques sourced from craft, fine, folk, low and high-brow cultures. Such work has awarded Andaluz residencies, grants and features with ProjectArt NYC, BronxArtSpace, Joan Mitchell Foundation, Bronx Documentary Center, BronxNet, ArtForum, and Aperture Foundation’s magazine.
