Sophia Sobrino is an Atlanta-based artist whose interdisciplinary practice explores personal and collective narratives through themes of feminism, marginalized identity, cultural heritage, and popular culture. Her work draws from lived experience and personal reflection, creating spaces in which viewers may recognize aspects of their own identities and experiences.
Sobrino’s practice is informed by Surrealism, Lowbrow, and contemporary art, with a focus on illustration, painting, and printmaking. Born and raised in Atlanta, Sobrino incorporates elements of her Hispanic heritage into her work, often reinterpreting familiar cultural imagery, traditions, and themes through a contemporary lens.
Sobrino received her Bachelor of Arts in Studio Art from Oglethorpe University in 2024. Her recent exhibitions include *How We Become*, a group exhibition at Town + Culture, and *Oglethorpe’s Portfolio: Art by Students*, an exhibition series she co-curated to highlight student artists at Oglethorpe University. Her previous exhibitions include *Epifanías*, a solo exhibition at the Mexican Consulate, and the Governor’s Honors Program Group Exhibition at Berry College. In 2020, Sobrino was a finalist in the Latin American Association’s scholarship contest, *Portraying the Immigrant Experience*, with her work *Herencia* featured in a group exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia. She has also collaborated with the Institute of Mexican Culture to exhibit work at the Margaret Mitchell House Museum in celebration of Día de los Muertos.
