Bismark Alejandro Reyes Art Exhibition @ Institute of Hispanic Culture of Houston
Sep 1 – Oct 25 all-day
Bismark Alejandro Reyes Art Exhibition @ Institute of Hispanic Culture of Houston

About the artist

Bismark Alejandro Reyes
Born in Houston, Texas and also raised in San Nicolas de Los Garza, Nuevo Leon, Mexico.
A self-taught multidisciplinary artist and studying Architecture at Prairie View A&M University.

“To begin, I must say I am a creative person. I see it all around from a pattern on a tree to the outline of the sky. Always with a sketchbook in hand, being the only companion that has no judgement and accepts my inquietudes and imaginations. This, becoming a way of seeing, observing and creating a way of life.
I am currently returning from a journey across Mexico where I got to experience my roots more deeply and connect with people. Thus broadening my understanding of where I come from, walking ancient Mayan paths on a discovery of the self.
At this moment I am becoming a more established artist and I hope we can collaborate to make something special, as my pure intentions are to express and share an experience.”

Project Manager: Mariela G. Domínguez
