“Women’s roles in art have always fascinated me and fueled my artistic practices. Forming a strong unit of active local female artists who strive to overthrow institutional barriers which isolate and neglect exhibiting women artists is a personal mission. So when I met Carolina—we were both representing female artists at a live painting event at Lincoln Park Zoo—and then saw her work and engaged in conversation, we connected. It was clear our missions, lifestyles and self-motivation aligned. Since then she has come to inspire me to disregard what others think and keep investing in self-discovery and spreading love. She is independent yet has much compassion, and that is clear in her vibrant, thoughtful artwork. Her work is what art should be: thought provoking.”

“Art is modern-day media, it tells you some truths about the worlds we live in.”

-Carolina I. Reyes-

Reyes’ work is Urban, Pop, and Surrealism taking the forms of paintings, garments, installations, drawings, and photographs. Her visions, consists of bright colors, urban landscapes, portraits, geometric shapes, text, and symbols, drawing attention to social issues, empowerment, and questions.

“My goal is to engage my audience to question everything, society, and the media and to seek their own answers.

I want to create a platform where dialogue can be possible for my audience to be open to expressing their ideas, who they are, and how they feel.“

FEATURED INTERVIEW:
“I prefer to call my art supplies “tools”, because It is a therapeutic process for me. I call them such because my visions or messages within my body of work vary.”
