Genesis Moreno

Genesis Moreno (b. 1991, Illinois) is a Miami-based textile artist who turns quilting into a language of vulnerability and self-expression. Working through a feminist lens, she stitches together themes of trauma, mental health, and obsessive care, transforming familiar fabrics into charged objects. Her quilts resist being seen only as comfort or ornament; instead, they ask the viewer to sit with discomfort, memory, and emotion.

Genesis received a Bachelors of Fine Arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2017 on a Merit Scholarship. Her recent exhibitions include “That Which Frightens Us” at Primary Projects in Miami, FL, “Thinking Matter” at Ear Ear Projects in Munich, Germany, and “Everything Ends Eventually” at Latchkey Gallery in New York City. She has also participated in the Woodstock Byrdcliffe Guild Residency in Woodstock, NY.
