Inez Oliveras was born in Philadelphia, a city she loves for its abundance of art, culture and diversity. It was there she discovered her passion for visual arts — through an after school photography program.
With access to a darkroom, she explored film & alternative processes in community college. A year later, she switched majors to graphic design, in love with the idea of fusing type and photo. Inez would then earn her B.F.A in Graphic & Interactive Design at West Chester University. Her work has been featured in exhibitions across Philadelphia and has been awarded for newspaper design & social advocacy projects.
She loves to tell stories and advocate for social issues through her art. Some of her (endless) hobbies include playing board games with friends, making specialty coffee, portrait photography, doodling and disc golf.
