Alana burns

Alana Burns (Mexico City, 1988) is a multidisciplinary artist and trained psychologist based in Mexico City. Her practice explores memory, material transformation, and a subtle dialogue with nature through encaustic painting, textiles, sculpture, and interventions on found objects, particularly seashells. Working with intuitive processes, she treats materials as living archives capable of holding time, emotion, and trace. Informed by her background in poetry and psychology, her work approaches art as a space of quiet transformation, where the ritual, the everyday, and the timeless converge.
