Adrienne Diaz (she/her/they/them) is a mixed-race visual artist based in Fresno. Before becoming an artist in 2018, she was an activist and community organizer. She brings that experience into her art, focusing on themes of radical love, body, race and culture by exploring use of color and magical realism. Diaz mainly works with oil and acrylic on wood panels, but has enjoyed working with charcoal, digital illustration, relief prints and even a bit of poetry.
