Ydania Li Lopez is a multidisciplinary New York-based artist working in video, photography, painting, collage, and sculpture.
Lopez work uncovers the layers of family, race, gender, and community through her own layering of different material investigations of ceramic, perspective, texture, photography, language, and new media. Her own idiosyncratic disruptions suggest that these are ongoing processes informed by loss, trauma, humor, and love that together result in the complexity of lived experience.
Raised between Jamaica Queens and the Lower East side of Manhattan, Lopez currently lives and works in Brooklyn. Her work has been exhibited throughout New York City and has been supported through residencies at the Vermont Studio Center and the School of Visual Arts.
