“I bet you could sometimes find all of the mysteries of the universe in someone’s hand”
“So dark but I wish you sun”
“A kind of death that rebirths you into something less painful…like a tree”
We’re looking at the same sky

Edward Gia is an artist from New York, NY. His work maps the emotional terrain shaped by his Ecuadorian-Mexican American identity. Spanning family archives, self-portraits, marked texts, and slow gestures of care, his practice stitches together diasporic memory and personal myth that traverse the liminal spaces between fiction and autobiography, touching on migration, inheritance, and the ache of generational silence. His work anchors themes of longing and resilience within the folds of the everyday through poetic image-making, installation, and archival layering forming layered constellations.
