\u00a0Andr\u00e9<\/span>s Loor (she\/her\/they\/them)<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Gallery Assistant<\/h4>\n

Andr\u00e9s Loor is an interdisciplinary artist from Urbana, Illinois. She is a first-year undergraduate, receiving a BFA in Studio specializing in photography, sculpture, and film. Her artistic practice explores themes of intersectionality, human connection, and a desire for something more than herself. Radical vulnerability is a driving factor in her need to create, wanting to make work that can allow viewers to look inward. She is also a Gallery assistant at the SAIC Galleries, and an event photographer for SITE.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
