Skies & Serpents Art Reception

April 20 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Celeste De Luna is an artist/printmaker originally from the lower Rio Grande Valley of South Texas. Celeste is a self-taught printmaker whose work includes large-scale woodcut prints and fabric installation. A long-time arts educator of over 20 years in public schools and higher education, she now teaches at Northwest Vista College. “A true daughter of the borderlands, her art celebrates the quotidian and the exceptional on the border,” writes indigenous studies professor Ines Hernandez-Avila. Currently, she lives in San Antonio and works out of her home studio, Metztli Press. Celeste has been awarded residencies, fellowships, & grants from Vermont Studio Center, Artplace America, a Blade of Grass, Santa Fe Art Institute Artist Residency, and in 2022, showed her work in Vancouver in the exhibit “Xicanx: Dreamers and Changemakers”
