Saskia Jordá
Website
Saskia Jordá is an interdisciplinary artist working on site-specific installations, drawings, and performances. Scientific research has been a departure point for Jordá’s work since her undergraduate studies at Arizona State University. This relationship developed further in the work she did for her Master’s degree at the School of Visual Arts in New York City. Since then, her work has referenced obscure anatomy, the evolution of a second skin, and the body as an alternate artifact. Earlier this year Jordá received an Artist Project Grant from the Arizona Commission on the Arts and in 2009 she was the recipient of the Contemporary Forum of the Phoenix Art Museum Artist Grant. She has exhibited throughout the United States and internationally and currently lives and works in Arizona. www.saskiajorda.com.
