CUE x Capsules: In the fall of 2024 Terrarium launched their first artist residency, the artists in residence were selected through a recommendation process by peer artists in their community. Artists are provided 4 months of studio access, technical support and mentorship to expand their practices and reach their artistic goals.
Our Current 2024 Artists in Residence:
Kikeyah Alina Chavez (she/her)
is I.
I am a chicana p’urhépecha pilipina earth worker, seed keeper, curator, transdisciplinary artist. Being a warrior is my artistic practice. Fighting for the freedom to express our beauty. I am here to honour and embody the universal life force within me. My intentions and dreams are to heal memories and remember stories that have been buried so deeply by colonization. I am here to dream and co-create a future that uncovers and restores our indigenous and cultural brilliance and beautyfullness.
