About Alejandra

Alejandra Abad serves as Assistant Professor of digital media production in the School of Communication and Multimedia Studies within Florida Atlantic University’s Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters. She earned an MFA in Interdisciplinary Media Art Practices from the University of Colorado, conducted architectural studies at Florida Atlantic University, and studied Film/Video/New Media/Animation at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Born in Caracas, Venezuela, Abad is an interdisciplinary visual media artist and educator whose practice explores belonging and mutual compassion as key elements of collective wellness. Employing layering, abstraction, and light, she crafts new landscapes that connect to place, family, and community. Her style draws from architectural influences, anticolonial movements, international surrealism, and magical realism, intertwined with personal experiences in new spaces. Abad utilizes analog and digital processes to project moving images in public spaces, grounded in a pedagogy of care, addressing environmental futures and the implications of the anthropocene.
