Alida
Cervantes
Alida
was born in San Diego in 1972, but raised in Tijuana by her parents
who had recently moved there from Mexico City before her birth. She
has spent most of her life moving continuously from one side of the
border to the other. Alida holds a B.A. in Visual Arts from UCSD but
also spent two years in Italy studying painting. She also spent four
years working as an artist in New York City. Alida continues to live
and work in the Tijuana/San Diego area and this constant travel and
exposure informs her work.
