ALICIA DE LA CAMPA PAK
Artist Statement CV Press Release
Alicia De La Campa Pak paints a dreamscape influenced by Cuban and Western art history. By creating characters, poses, and costumes derived from Western European art, Alicia creates her own aesthetic. Echoes of the depictions of everyday women in floral headdresses and elaborate decorative elements in paintings by Cuban artists René Portocarrero and Servando Cabrera Moreno also find their way into Pak’s compositions.
Alicia graduated from Havana´s San Alejandro Art School, and she went on to earn an MBA in Visual Education at the Enrique José Varona Higher Pedagogical Institute. Alicia is a member of the National Union of Cuban Writers and Artists (UNEAC.) She has had numerous solo and group exhibitions in Havana, New York, Chicago, South Korea, Mexico, Panama, Madrid and Slovakia.
