Biography

Ana Vergara is a Colombian-born American artist based in Miami, Florida who fragments and distorts the material culture of the domestic environments and urban landscapes she lives in. Through installations, drawing, and printmaking, her work addresses how immigration and forcefully rapid changes in her community impact her sense of identity and memory. Her work primarily relies on the fragmentation of repeated symbols and identifiers from her environment. 

Vergara is an alumna of the Yale Norfolk School of Art residency in Norfolk, Connecticut where she attended in 2022 and received her BFA in Visual Arts with a concentration in Drawing from New World School of the Arts in Miami, Florida in 2023 where she graduated as valedictorian. She has exhibited in group exhibitions in museums and galleries throughout the United States including the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, the Museum of Arts and Sciences, the New World Gallery, the Martin and Pat Center for the Fine Arts, the Koubek Center, and the Yale Norfolk Art Barn Gallery.
