Get to Know the Austin Artist:

Andrea Muñoz Martínez is a Latinx artist who paints abstract landscapes of a re-imagined place called Borderlandia.  She was born and raised in Uvalde, TX. Martinez earned a BFA from The University of Texas at Austin and an MFA from the University of California, Davis. She is a border artist not only because she grew up in the borderlands of South Texas but also because her paintings and performance art take the border and boundaries as their subject.

I grew up in south Texas where hill country meets brush country.  It is the vitality and depth of this vast landscape that my art evokes.  Inspired by the writings of the theorist Gloria Anzaldua, who described the border as a “1,950 mile-long open wound,” I render a place I call Borderlandia.
