Cecilia Lueza (born 1971) is an Argentine-American painter and sculptor. [1]
Lueza is an Argentine artist who has lived in Florida since 1998. She earned her Masters in Painting at the Faculty of Arts in the National University of La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina. [2]
In 1998 she had her first solo show in Buenos Aires. Shortly after she moved permanently to the United States. In the early 2000 Lueza began to show her work steadily in both group and solo shows in the United States, Argentina, Mexico, and the Caribbean.[ citation needed]
Her first large-scale sculptures were exhibited in Orlando, Florida in 2002. Since then she has worked on site-specific art projects and public art projects as well as private and public art commissions throughout the United States and South America.
Her works include the sculpture series Diversity created between 2007 and 2011. The large-scale female faces are made of urethane and aluminum and painted in various shades of orange, red and yellow. [3] The sculptures have a three-dimensional effect and represent women from different ethnicities, generations and beliefs that are unified through the artist's use of style and color.
Another work is Winds of Change, in Chattanooga, Tennessee. It consists of an angel-like figure on a stainless steel tube that is being held by the hand of a woman. The angel is kinetic and has been painted in a wide range of colors as a way of representing diversity, inclusiveness, hope and yearning. The sculpture was acquired for permanent display by the Chattanooga Public Art Commission.[ citation needed]
In 2010 Lueza was commissioned to create a site specific work for the Arts and Innovation Center in Rockville, Maryland. Unveiled in May 2011, Luminarium consists of two interactive wall sculptures containing a fiber optic and light-emitting diode system activated in accordance with the frequency and intensity of sound. The lights will glow with different colors depending on the frequency of the sounds detected and the light pattern will change depending on the sound's direction. Each panel is 10 feet high by 6 feet wide and 10 inches in depth. [4]
In December 2011, Lueza participated in Giants in the City, a public art exhibit of monumental inflatable sculptures that takes place each year in Miami, Florida.[ citation needed]
