Alexander Escobedo (San Diego, Tijuana, 1994) investigates the formation and sustainability of identity through drawing and performance, among other disciplines. Currently, their work employs everyday actions—such as walking or cleaning—to create emotional connections among marginalized individuals, thus addressing themes of affectivity and care while also considering these interactions as artistic sources that enable the materialization of both individual and collaborative projects. Escobedo holds a Bachelor's degree in Visual Arts and a Bachelor's degree in Literature from the University of California (Santa Cruz, USA, 2017). In 2022, they had their first solo exhibition in México (Chiflado/a, Compás 88, CDMX) and has participated in various group shows in both the United States and Mexico. They received several scholarships and awards during their studies in Santa Cruz.
