Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

Pierina Másquez unravels the hidden emotional and spatial histories embedded within everyday objects and materials, transforming them into evocative reflections on labor and identity. She works across installations, soft sculpture, ceramics, and drawing, investigating how labor leaves traces on both bodies and objects.

Through this sensitive yet critical lens, Másquez creates work that resonates with both personal introspection and broader cultural critique. ...
