monica canilao
Monica Canilao is a Bay Area native with a deep investment in home, community, and the passage of time. These recurring themes are interwoven into her daily life and throughout her art practice. Fascinated with the imprint people leave behind, she utilizes recycled materials in both her art practice and personal life generating a personal and living history. Canilao's visual language acts as a tool to push past barriers and see outside the commonplace. Her ever growing body of work spans from massive paper and fabric structures, site-specific installations, murals, meticulous paintings, illustration, printmaking, mixed media works, jewelry constructions, sculptures, alter and memorial works, costuming and performance art. Her practice and collaborations create a visual vernacular that resonates beyond verbal and individual differences and weaves her experiences with physical remnants of past lives. Exploring interconnections between the personal and collective, bloodlines, tradition, craft, the commonplace and the sacred. These elements combine themselves searching for a vision of home and a feral desire for connection.
