About the artist:
Anna Ialeggio is a queer white nonbinary artist, performer, and educator, currently living and working on Cayuga homelands (Ithaca, NY).

Weaving through mediated, simulated, and fantastical infrastructure in order to articulate and celebrate biodiversity in ecosystems and ideas, Ialeggio has staged exhibitions and performances at local, national, and international levels. Their creative ethos is shaped by fortunate contact with localized collectivism: Bread & Puppet Theater, Signal Fire, Miss Rockaway Armada, KCHUNG Radio, rural mutual aid and environmental activist networks, Theater of the Oppressed, queer DIY spaces, and craft apprenticeships. Ialeggio received an MFA from the University of CA, Irvine in 2019 with a graduate emphasis in Visual Arts. They are Assistant Professor of Studio Arts at Wells College.
