Elisa is a self-taught artist born and raised in San Diego, California who has collaborated with small business owners, musicians, and other multidisciplinary artists with over 10 years of experience. 

 

Elisa's work is inspired by her upbringing, environments, and family history. As a first generation Mexican American she highlights the importance in seeing beauty in all environments, specifically those rooted in economic hardship. Her focus is to capture emotion, reality, and the stories woven between them. ​

She has a goal of leading viewers to feel faith, a safe space, and motivation to rise above trials and tribulations, to look within themselves and to feel seen. 

​

"For me art is reflective and grounding - it's a way of observing how individuals carry their histories, beliefs, and inner world  through the spaces they inhabit. Whether I’m documenting everyday rituals, landscapes that hold emotional weight, or the subtle details of a lived environment, I strive to create images that honor authenticity and vulnerability." - Elisa B. Perez
