About the Artist

Dalila Sanabria is a Chilean-Colombian-American artist from central Florida, living and working between New Haven, CT and New York City. Using primarily sculpture, installation, and video, her work references domestic sites and sacred architectures, accumulating organic materials and kinetic technologies as catalysts to explore displacement, permanence, and belonging. Currently, she is the 2024-2025 Artist-in-Residence for The Latinx Project at New York University and a participant of the Interdisciplinary Art and Theory Program (IATP) held in Manhattan, NY.
