Elisa Dore

(American, born 1996)

Elisa Dore makes artworks that explore her ancestry and family, existing between two cultures, and how it shapes her identity. She is of Puerto Rican and white descent, born and raised outside of Atlanta, Georgia. Her art references this middle ground, this duality of belonging to two different cultures yet not fully fitting into either one. After four years of living in Seattle, Elisa is currently (2024) pursuing a Master of Fine Arts degree in printmaking in Atlanta.
