Ariann A. Guillermo

As I sit here trying to come up with the words that’ll best describe who I am and my abilities, I find it hard to put a pin on it. I’ve always been multidisciplinary and interested in all manners of expression. Art has been my outlet, livelihood and companion allowing me to explore all manners of storytelling, from traditional art-making to 3D animation.

​

While I currently reside in Ontario, Canada, I was born in the Mexican Caribbean, a place that perfectly balances magic with tragedy; something that has colored my style and work in many ways. As a queer artist, what’s most important to me is creating work that speaks to the heart. With every piece of art made, my aim is to evoke emotions hidden inside the mundane and to tell stories from rarely explored perspectives. My work is a celebration of diversity, community, empathy and a way to connect with people from all walks of life.
