Ariana Gomez is a visual artist living in Austin, TX. Centering photography and installation, Gomez’s practice explores the link between identity, land, home and memory through reflections on her parent’s relationship to land. Her interest lies within the intersections of photography, video, and sound, and how they work together to create an experiential memory-scape of place. 

Gomez has exhibited both in the U.S. and internationally, most recently with her solo show at Flats Gallery in Houston, TX, the Vermont Center for Photography in Brattleboro, VT, and Clamp Art Gallery in New York City. Previously her work has been shown at the Bronx Documentary Center in New York City, sTudio 7 for the Rockaway Artists’ Alliance in Fort Tilden, NY, and for The Print Space Gallery in London, UK. Recent awards include second place in the 2024 Lenscratch Student Awards, The Hopper Prize Grant and a 2024 University Residency Fellowship from Studios at MASS MoCA. Gomez’s works have been represented in the permanent collection of the Mexic-Arte Museum in Austin, TX. 

Editorial clients include The New York Times, NYT Opinion, Lux Magazine, Texas Observer and The Atlantic. Her work has been included in publications such as The Guardian, PetaPixel, PhMuseum, Booooooom, and Ain’t Bad.

Gomez holds a BFA from The Rochester Institute of Technology and an MFA from The University of Texas in Austin, and is a Diversify Photo Up Next and ICOSA member. She currently teaches photography and bookmaking at The University of Texas at Austin.
