Aisyle Deriquito is an artist based in Maryland. She received her BFA at George Mason University in 2019.
My personal work is reflective of the memories and the identities I carry with me. At a young age, I had a fixation with keeping journals and memorabilia that held moments in place (in some ways, I still do).
The subject matter in my work symbolizes and pays homage to these stories in a sequence of themes. Often stemming from my identity as a first-gen immigrant and as a creative soul.
Through storytelling, I can enter a space of reflection and share with viewers what I visualize through introspection.
