Beth Atanacio is an American artist who creates abstract art to communicate complex emotions. Born to Filipino and Chinese immigrant parents in Buffalo, NY, she studied abroad in Beijing and worked as a designer and programmer in New York City for many years before returning back home. Navigating these different social, cultural, and economic spaces has, and continues to, influence her work. Beth’s visual inspiration comes from the man-made and the natural realms; the most emotionally moving being phenomena that exist from both of these components. Beth earned a BFA in Communication Design at SUNY Buffalo and a Master of Industrial Design at Pratt Institute. She has exhibited work during New York Design Week (now NYCxDESIGN) at the Model Citizens NYC show.
