Eva Lia Pedriglieri is an interdisciplinary artist and arts education administrator. She works in service of youth impact and education with deep consideration for meaningful representation, artistic expression and community-based approaches. She collaborates with educators, writers, artists, and community members in artistic and academic capacities to foster equitability and access within the arts.
Eva’s interdisciplinary artwork investigates and represents cultural tradition and heritage through personal and community identity--specifically the implications of a multi-cultural/ethnic/racial/lingual identity. She connects personal memory, family, and cultural tradition with new media and experimental approaches through performance, video, social practice and site-specific installation--engaging actively with her audiences through interactive experiences and community involvement.
Eva earned her BFA degree in Fine Arts from Parsons the New School for Design and a BA degree in Culture & Media Studies from Eugene Lang the New School for Liberal Arts. She has exhibited artwork and screened her short films in galleries and festivals in New York, Los Angeles, Paris, Miami, and Dominican Republic. She has also founded, directed and assisted in several international art festivals. Along with her work as an independent artist, Eva has worked as a teaching artist and served as a US Fulbright cultural ambassador and English teacher in Southern Italy. She is currently based in Brooklyn and works as an arts education administrator for New York University, Steinhardt.
