FEATURED ARTISTS

She began as a student at House of the Lorde in 2022 and has been blazing stages since, performing at Nudie Nubies Nationwide, SoHo House, and Teaser Festival in New Orleans.

Ále Campos (they/them, b. 1994, Los Angeles, CA) is a multidisciplinary artist and performance maker whose elastic studio practice is anchored in the vernacular of drag and their persona, ‘Celeste’. They generate live performance works that are often rhapsodic and mediated by technology, involving or unfolding into the mediums of sculpture, sound, text, video and installation. Drag is the lens through which they consider performance making: they consider the stage and its borders, the malleability of the gaze, how to de/construct an image, the various states of in/visibility and how to handle time. www.ale-campos.com
