Andrea Izaguirre (b. Caracas, Venezuela) is a San Antonio based artist currently involved with the community through doing workshops with local museums. In 2023 she obtained her BFA from The University of Texas at San Antonio with a concentration in Printmaking. Her body of work involves different methods of printmaking, leatherworking, sewing and mixed media sculptures. Her artwork reflects a conversation between nature and the self, exploring topics of identity and culture through the intrinsic geometry and structure of plants and insects, and their symbolism.
MOSAIC Student Artist Program
The Contemporary at Blue Star’s MOSAIC Student Artist Program is open to high school students who are interested in developing their professional artistic skills and careers in the arts. The after-school program is a combination of studio practice and exposure to the business side of art and arts administration. An extension of the Contemporary’s educational programs, we are committed to giving MOSAIC students free access to quality arts education, encouraging high standards of achievement, and fostering excellence and leadership.
MOSAIC Visiting Artists mentor students in a diverse range of art mediums in an intensive, independent study format. The MOSAIC Student Art Gallery features student exhibitions, drawing hundreds of visitors and adds to San Antonio’s vibrant and rich visual culture. Students participate in the Contemporary’s programs and have access to visiting artists.
100% of MOSAIC’s students have graduated high school and our concentration on college readiness prepares them for careers in the arts, sharing in San Antonio’s cultural economy and continuing the Contemporary’s mission to inspire the creative genius in us all by nurturing artists through contemporary art.
