TRACEY BACA
MIXED MEDIA-ARTIST | ALBUQUERQUE, NM
ARTIST BIO
Tracey Baca is a mixed-media artist whose work examines transformation, memory, and the unseen forces carried in materials. Working through touch and vision, she layers painting, assemblage, ceramics, mold-making, and digital processes to create environments that feel both excavated and newly formed. Reclaimed objects guide her process, becoming vessels for story, ancestry, and re-patterning.
ARTIST STATEMENT
Artist Statement My work explores transformation—of materials, memory, and internal states. I move across assemblage, painting, ceramics, mold-making, and digital layering, letting each medium express its own nature. I work through touch and vision; texture and resistance reveal how each layer wants to emerge. Reclaimed materials carry history, while paint brings atmosphere and clay holds possibility. The process mirrors my background in earth-based healing—gathering fragments, creating coherence, and shaping what wants to live again.
