Elisa Dore is an artist of Puerto Rican descent born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia. Primarily working in printmaking, she uses her practice as a way of carving out identity and communing with subconscious ways of knowing. She is currently an MFA candidate in printmaking at Georgia State University in Atlanta.
Her work is shaped by her heritage, Puerto Rican and southern American. It references a middle ground - a duality of belonging to two different cultures yet not fully fitting into either one.
