Gaby Collins-Fernández (b. 1987, New York, NY) is an artist who navigates aesthetic inheritance by drawing from historical and personal image archives. Known for her distinctive approach to mixed-media painting, her process begins digitally, creating photocollages that merge self-portraits and art historical images, extensively manipulated using Photoshop. She received a B.A. from Dartmouth College and an MFA in Painting & Printmaking from the Yale School of Art. Her work has been shown in the US and internationally, including at Peter Freeman, Inc., the Birmingham Museum of Art, and el Museo del Barrio. Her work has been discussed in publications such as The Brooklyn Rail and artcritical, and on the video interview series, Gorky's Granddaughter. She is a recipient of residencies at Yaddo (Saratoga Springs, NY), The Marble House Project (Dorset, VT), and the Elizabeth Murray Art Residency (Granville, NY), and a 2013 Rema Hort Mann Foundation Emerging Art Award. She was also a 2023-4 resident of the Sharpe-Walentas Studio Program. Collins-Fernández is also a writer whose texts have appeared in Cultured Magazine, The Miami Rail, and The Brooklyn Rail. She is a founder and publisher of the annual magazine Precog, and a co-director of the artist-run art and music initiative BombPop!Up. Collins-Fernández lives and works in New York City. 

 

She currently has an exhibition open at Rachel Uffner Gallery, Art in Love, up until October 19, 2024.
