BIO

Andres Cabrera-Garcia is a Cuban-born artist who has lived and worked in Cuba, Spain, and the United States. Cabrera-Garcia’s work explores identity, place, and belonging as it relates to the genre of landscape, the process of oil painting, and the materiality of the painting medium. Landscapes in their native beauty, their transformation from natural to urban, and their steering away from pristine states are recurrent themes in his work. Exhibitions within this theme include Krome Avenue: Paintings by Andres Cabrera in 2019 and Outside of Cuba, contemporary art in Switzerland in 2018. He won 3rd place in the 8th Edition of the Paint-me Miami competition in 2019. He is a current studio-based Artist-in-Residence at Deering Estate.
