Vanezza Cruz is an Afro Latina visual artist and designer based in NYC and of Dominican descent. Vanezza’s work centers her experience as a darker-skinned Latina who is challenging the Eurocentric standards of not only beauty but the fine arts world that disempowers the BIPOC community and in particular, black women. Through various mediums such as prints, collages, paintings, illustrations and murals, Vanezza’s art uplifts those who are often unheard and unseen in the mainstream art world. She has exhibited with Calabar Gallery and is the 2023 Calabar Art Resident at coLAB Arts in New Brunswick
