Biography

Firelai Baez is a visual artist from the Dominican Republic. Born in 1981, Baez graduated with an MFA from Hunter College in New York City before pursuing a career as a multimedia painter. The work of Baz is characterized by deeply imaginative, somewhat wistful depictions of human figures. These portrayals are often layered atop reworked historical manuscripts, excerpts from old maps which the artist has found.

Her work has been exhibited in galleries and exhibitions in both her native Dominican Republic, and across the globe, including a feature at New York City's Museum of Modern Art.
