Modern Renegade: the Artwork of Renee Maderazo is a solo exhibition that highlights work created during COVID-19 quarantine. Without access to a formal art studio, Maderazo used an eclectic blend of drawing, painting, and collage, to fashion these mixed media paintings and book art assemblages. Emblematic of life’s uncertainties, these pieces feature chaotic compositions of vibrant color and copious layers of collaged ornamentation.These “portraits” are fantastical representations of herself and the things most meaningful to Maderazo’s identity. Ideas of spiritualism, cultural hybridity, gender exploration, sexuality, and psychological meditations are blended throughout each of her pieces. This thematic dialogue is best to understand her world view, as well as uncovering meaning while surviving life’s twists and turns.Renee Maderazo is a mixed media artist, illustrator, and muralist from Santa Ana, California.Throughout her academic career, Maderazo has had the pleasure of serving the Santa AnaCollege Mural Team, the Sienna Collective, and Gamma Rho Lambda National Sorority.
