Aura Meztli

RESIDENT ARTIST

Multifaceted artist born in Mexico City on September 20, 1994.

She was formed in the visual arts environment at a very early age, thanks to her parents, who as visual artists and with their daily creative work, help her to manifest herself as an artist.

Her path has been intertwined between art and fashion. After a semester at the Escuela Superior de Artes de Yucatán, she decided to change her path, finally graduating in 2018 from the career of Fashion Design and Clothing Industry at the Universidad del Valle de México, in Mérida Yucatán.

Her work in oil and acrylic stands out, as well as her intelligent use of charcoal and inks on paper.

Her exploitation in clothing is constant, as well as with live canvases in her tattoo studio.

Her autistic condition has led her to a strong analysis and questioning of human behavior through art. Always keeping in mind the theme of reconciliation with the earth, femininity, the ethereal, and various social protests.

Her work connects with her Mexican roots in a contemporary way, where her background as a fashion designer is present in the clothing and her magical compositions.

She is currently working on her own production at Nahualli Casa de los Artistas, expanding her knowledge in tattooing, and recognizing new ethical and ecological languages of clothing.
