ABOUT ME
Elana’s art serves to discuss complex themes of identity, hegemonic social constructs, and systemic inequality with their audience. As a first-class graduate in the Edinburgh College of Art’s BA Art program, their practice has developed across a diverse range of media. Popular culture and queerness play a central role in shaping their work, resulting in pieces influenced by contemporary, camp, and post-net aesthetics. Over the past three years, their work has been showcased in 29 venues, including galleries, exhibitions, websites, and magazines, both within and beyond the academic context.
