Ms. Miró
Ms. Miró started her arts exploration at Kansas City Art Institute where she studied painting and printmaking. Ms. Miró holds a Bachelor of Science, Cum Laude, in Management Information Systems from University of Texas at Dallas. In May 2016, Ms. Miró graduated with her Master of Fine Art in Art & Technology also from University of Texas at Dallas.
Ms. Miró is a socially engaged artist who is passionate about preserving diversity in Dallas. She collaborated with Rick Lowe on Trans.lation, a Nasher Xchange project located in Vickery Meadow, where she developed a passion for teaching. She began by developing relationships and workshops that served the needs of the multicultural community in Vickery Meadow who are threatened by gentrification. Ms. Miró was a Nasher Sculpture Center Artist in Residence.
On campus at UTD, Ms. Miró is known for Arms Around the Art Barn, an initiative to save one of the last examples of tin roof architecture in the Dallas area. This project culminated in a full scale installation of sweaters that encircled the entire perimeter of the structure in a warm fuzzy hug. UTD's Visual Arts building received a 'stay of execution' until it was demolished after her graduation.
Ms. Miró is a working artist. She continues to create and exhibit artwork. Her work is currently on view at RO2 Gallery in the Cedars (Dallas). She has a solo show in January, 2019, at MFA gallery in Oak Cliff. She has been published in catalogs and news media. Her work is in the Capital One Corporate collection and is collected by various private collectors.
