Artist Bio:

Tiffany Aiello an interdisciplinary artist from Northern California. She received a BFA in Studio Art from Sacramento State University in 2023 and is currently pursuing an MFA in Art at UC Santa Barbara. Her creative practice is propelled by a lifelong interest in zoology, the solidarity of outcasts, and guided by her experiences as a neurodivergent woman. Through overstimulating and peculiar juxtapositions, she invents worlds with figures that exist at the intersections of human, beast and object.

Artist statement:

Tiffany explores the tumultuous human experience using animal metaphors and anthropomorphic vessels, woven together with humor and tragedy. She portrays hybrid worlds through an idiosyncratic lens, where things exist in the spaces between and outside binaries. Inspired by the escapism offered by niche online subcultures, her current body of work explores the body/soul dichotomy and the malleability of identity through the role-playing actions of character performance, masking, puppetry, and synthetic avatars.
