ARTE LATINO CO-CURATOR

Melody De Los Cobos

Melody De Los Cobos is a mixed media artist, muralist, curator, community event organizer, and Love City Height’s Artistic Director. Born and raised in San Diego, she is well known among her private collectors, curators and fellow artists. Her skills of construction with corn husk and eggshells in three-dimensional works of art have made her a must-see artist. She draws inspiration from her Mexican heritage and Chicana experience as a first generation born American, to create vibrant and unique pieces. Melody’s love of texture and color allows her to find creative inspiration in everything life visually presents in her path and the emotions of her life experiences.
