Elsa Lebrija [b. 2001, Mexico City] creates paintings and mixed-media works that explore the human body, emotion, and cultural and scientific identity through a combination of abstract and figurative forms. Her practice incorporates acrylic, charcoal, ink, and occasionally fresco techniques, driven by an interest in textures, traces, and the marks left by the creative process.

Her work focuses on the subtle gestures of the female figure, the layers of cultural memory, and ideas derived from scientific research. She has exhibited internationally, including in Mexico, the United States, and Italy, and studied Fine Arts at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, later completing a postgraduate degree in Art Restoration and Conservation at the Lorenzo de Medici Institute in Florence, Italy.
