About the Artists
Diana-Sofia Estrada is a Guatemalan American visual artist and educator born in Houston. Her paintings, animations, installations, and social practice works question our immediate visual culture. She has exhibited work nationally and internationally, and is a current artist in residence at Houston’s Box13 Artspace.
Saúl Hernández-Vargas is a Houston-based visual artist and writer whose work is concerned with material performativity, the framing of historical objects, and fiction. A recipient of the Artadia Award and an alum of the Core Program at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, his first solo museum exhibition opened at the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo y de las Culturas de Oaxaca last October.
Isogram Media Studio (Houston artists Ha Na Lee and James Hughes) creates immersive experiences through public art and projection-based works. Using video, sound, kinetic machines, and interactive elements, Lee and Hughes push the boundaries of contemporary art, technological innovation, and audience engagement.
