Ximena Within mixed media artist photographer Barreto

My work

I am a Peruvian visual artist residing in the US. I use photography as my main form of artistic expression and add embroidery and watercolor to it. I experiment with different materials and techniques to obtain new results. I love the fact that what is an initial idea in my head turns out differently in the final art piece. The process is as valuable and enjoyable as the result is for me.

These pieces can be ordered to be custom made. Send me an email to info@ximenawithin for pricing and timing.
