Aldo Cervantes is a Mexican American artist born and raised in Baja California, Mexico. He immigrated to the U.S. at an early age and received a B.A. in Visual Arts at the University of California, San Diego in 2021. Inspired by his family snapshots, Cervantes looks into ideas of postmemory, migration, and labor. Identifying as a Fronterizo, he is interested in his family history and its search for a sense of home and a brighter future. He is currently working with the archive and documenting his family, objects, and spaces that hold memories and are in dialogue with the past and present.
