About
Bio
Marbella Hernandez (she/her), born in 2004 and raised in Houston, Texas, is a Dallas–based visual artist whose work bridges the gap between everyday urban life and pop culture. After relocating to the DFW metroplex in 2022, she started working on many series of works, all based around her experiences as a Houstonian. Her figurative work is interesting, all telling narratives that are easily digestible, but dive deeper into topics like socio-economics, language, and protest.
Artist Statement
"Within my body of work, I like to utilize acrylic paints and 3D objects typically associated with alternative subcultures, while balancing them with soft materials, such as contrasting studs with threads and chains with yarn. Combining my 3 passions - pop culture, animals, and an edgy approach to life - I create figurative and lighthearted works. I often reflect on my own experiences growing up, for instance, where I was raised and what I observed during that time. Being chronically online, I am immensely inspired by popular media on the internet, which is prevalent in my works." - Marbella Hernandez
