About

Mariana Rockwell (born 1993) is an interdisciplinary artist from Chicago IL, USA. She works primarily in painting and sculpture and occasionally in installation and performance. Her work is an exploration of our relationship between 'Place' and 'The Subconscious' This work is an invitation to look inward and is a dissection of where we look for 'value' and 'sacredness' in a capitalist landscape, as well as a grappling with the loss of both. Equally, this work is a longing to return to where we come from and a search for the sublime in everyday places. Mariana received a bachelor's of fine arts from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2015, and since then has exhibited and curated work both in Chicago and abroad.
