Ana Vergara’s work builds on the relationship between space and place and its consequences on collective culture, memory, and identity. Using ready-made and found construction materials and images, both derived from domestic spaces, she comments on rapid urban-environmental change (such as migration, redevelopment, and displacement). Through the use of these materials, she takes an observational approach to piecing together narratives that reflect broader collective experiences. 

Vergara’s work has been exhibited in group shows, museums, and galleries in the United States, including the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, the Museum of Arts & Sciences in Daytona, the Koubek Center, the Martin & Pat Fine Center for the Arts, the Miami Design District Gallery, and the New World Gallery. She is currently an MFA candidate at Florida International University. She earned her BFA from the New World School of the Arts, where she graduated as Valedictorian in 2023, and attended the Yale Norfolk School of Art in 2022.
