Ariana Gomez is a visual artist based in Austin, TX. She spent twelve years in New York City working commercially and returned home to Austin to create her most recent work which explores the link between identity, land, home and memory. Working primarily with photography, film, text and sound, Gomez’s practice examines our notions of the ‘home’ as myth through reflections on her parent’s relationship to land. Her interest lies in the intersections of these mediums 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 showing for ICOSA Gallery’s Window Dressing in Austin, TX and in group shows at 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. Her 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, and Texas Observer and her work has been included in publications such as 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 Member.
