Chloe Luisa Piñero

ABOUT

Chloe Luisa Piñero (b. 1995) is an interdisciplinary artist and educator from Philadelphia, PA, who works in mixed media painting, collage, and sculpture. Reflecting on her own experiences and familial histories from both her native home of Philadelphia, and her ancestral home of Puerto Rico, Chloe aims to preserve stories and memories tied to place, while exploring themes of gender, queerness, and desire as they relate to her own identity.

Piñero earned a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Painting and Drawing from Tyler School of Art at Temple University in 2018. She recently completed the Spring 2023 Apprenticeship program at The Fabric Workshop and Museum in Philadelphia, PA, has participated in the Jasper Studios Artist Residency in Philadelphia, PA, and is a recipient of the 2022 Illuminate the Arts Grant. Piñero’s recent solo exhibitions include Morph Erotic Dream from a Magazine, at Blah Blah Gallery (2023), In Between and All, at Once at Philadelphia's Magic Gardens (2022-23), On Being Home, at Lather Hair Studio (2022), and Fever Dreams, at Hyacinth Gallery (2021). Chloe has taught in art education and public programming at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and continues to teach in the Philadelphia area.
