Iliana Ortega-Alcázar was born in Mexico City and is based in London. She holds an MA in Fine Art from Middlesex University. Iliana works across a variety of media including printmaking and digital media, often bringing them together in the creation of both 2D and 3D installation pieces. Iliana’s practice deals with contemporary social and political issues: key concerns relate to the politics and gendered aspects of home-making, and issues relating to migration, home and belonging. She approaches her subject matter through a personal lens, and turns to abstraction with the aim of creating work that allows for multiple meanings and interpretations. Her screenprinted monotypes are part of a series entitled 'Claims of Belonging'. These prints are inspired in imagery of weathered graffities that were once bold. They refer to the agency that exists behind claims of belonging in the context of migration, as well as the fragility and contingency of such claims.
