Bio

Abinadi Meza is a Latinx-Indigenous artist and filmmaker based in Austin, Texas. Meza studied art, creative writing, and architecture; he primarily makes experimental films, sound works, and installations. Meza's works seek to create "other" spaces for viewers/listeners to inhabit, with a focus on alterity, spatial politics, and poetics. His works often use transitory or precarious materials - found footage, hand-painted film, field recordings, radio waves, glass.
