Description:

At NUPOC, science, technology and art intersect. In recognition of the artistry that is vital to prosthetics and orthotics, NUPOC is delighted to announce the installation of Kaleidoscope, an exhibit of seven abstract photographic works by interdisciplinary artist Pía Cruzalegui.

Born in Lima, Peru, the elements of time, place, gender and role are important factors in her work that reflects her life as an expatriate Latin American who calls the USA her home. Cruzalegui experiments with new media, combining art and technology to create immersive sensory experiences through video art, experimental sound and installations.

Cruzalegui holds a Bachelor of Arts in Communications - Film and Multimedia (Florida Atlantic University), and a Master of Fine Arts - Studio Art Practice (the School of the Art Institute of Chicago). She is a member of the Comunidad de Arte Contemporáneo Latinoamérica, Association of American Curators, and Chicago Sculpture International.
