About

Apolo Gomez (he/him/they/them) was born in Austin, TX, and is a queer Chicanx visual artist based out of Albuquerque, New Mexico. After a bout with cancer, he picked up his first camera and started documenting his friends and lovers. Through photography and installation, his interdisciplinary practice explores the complex multiplicity of personhood, queerness, desire, and his Latinx identity.

His work has been exhibited at the Colorado Photographic Arts Center, Denver, CO; Nevada Museum of Art, Reno, NV; and the National Hispanic Cultural Center Art Museum, Albuquerque, NM. He is represented by Kouri + Corrao Gallery, Santa Fe, NM, and is currently working as a Studio Assistant for Judy Chicago and Donald Woodman.
