Alejandra Rubio

Alejandra Rubio (Yavapai-Apache Nation) is a visual artist based in Carson City, Nevada. Her work offers an analytical, compassionate, and uniquely Native American lens to view and experience the full range of human emotion across cultures and subcultures — off the reservation and on the reservation. Her work aims to showcase the complexity of the human spirit in private, intimate, and honest settings. She affords her audience a respectful view of the lives and socially defined relationships of people who would otherwise remain invisible, unknown, or isolated in the shadows. Rubio often embeds herself into different cultures and subcultures to share their voices, experiences, and inflections. She values the power of sharing stories as a means of transferring knowledge and reaffirming cultural practices.
