ABOUT
Waleska Del Valle Solórzano is a Venezuelan-American photographer living in Denver, CO. Her portrait-based practice combines documentary and vernacular image-making to explore intimacy, kinship, and natural landscapes. She seeks to celebrate the beauty of (other)worldly connection, her diasporic roots, and the realities of people around her. Her visual work directly connects to her academic research and travels.
