Neveah Marquez is a transgender Mexican-American artist working at the intersections of participatory practice, Queer world-making and Chicanx spatial politics. Her art is camp, whimsical and poignantly grounded in the beauty of everyday life.
She creates magical paintings, durational performances and ephemeral installations that transform private sanctuary into collective ritual. Her work is a practice of metabolizing traditional Latinx cultural frameworks, living with bipolar disorder, and claiming space as a Queer person.
Marquez earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of California. Her work has since appeared in group exhibitions at the Cheech Marin Center for Chicano Art and Culture and the Delaware Contemporary, and in 2024 they co-curated Desde Los Cielos at the Cheech, bringing together fifteen Inland Empire artists working with ideas of alienness and belonging.
She has a fundamental philosophy that art should be something you live in.
