LUCIA DIAZ CEO & Founder
Columbia, Maryland
Lucia Diaz, a first-generation Colombian-American, founded LUCIA DIAZ, a Latina-owned a business that creates high-quality illustrations to empower and honor Latinas. Her artwork is intended to provide cultural representation and pride, allowing mujeres poderosas to see themselves represented in the world. Lucia firmly believes that Web3 can be a tool for change and has donated the proceeds from her Mujeres Collection to Casa Hogar Nazareth,an orphanage in Medellin, Colombia. Her grandfather, Jose Manuel Arias, was an orphan but also a fierce leader in his rural community of Abejorral Colombia. Upholding the value of community over the individual, Lucia believes that we need to help our communities thrive in Latin America and not forget where we come from.
The UN Latine Art Exhibit pays tribute to 100 Latin American artists and individuals with Latin American roots living in the United States, recognizing their exceptional creative contributions that deserve recognition. Curator Lucia Diaz, a first-generation Colombian, holds a particular passion for showcasing the art of Latina representation during Hispanic Heritage Month. The exhibition’s vision is to honor our cultural origins, never forgetting where we come from and celebrating the progress we achieve as a united community. Gratitude is extended to our venue sponsors, Women of Web3, and allies for their invaluable support.
