Natalia Ángeles Vierya has been around art all her life. Her first encounters with artistic expression came as a child at church, a sort of primer for visual culture for many Latino children.
Her father, a Mexican immigrant, imparted an appreciation for fine art at home, himself inspired by a relative who had worked in the Registration Department at Mexico's Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes (the country's fine arts institute) in the 1970s. When it was time to pick a career, she had been inspired enough to flex her creative side, choosing to study Graphic Design.
