soledad's profile
Soledad Salamé, American, was born in Chile in 1954. The artist moved to Baltimore in 1987 before establishing – in 2009 – a vibrant print studio in Baltimore. Salamé is an active member of the Baltimore arts community, and a lifelong educator. As an interdisciplinary artist, she creates work that originates from extensive investigation into specific topics. In the pursuit of new ideas, she has conducted intensive field research in the Americas, Antarctica, and beyond. Her current project, We The Migrants: Fleeing/Flooding is based on migration resulting from climate change, exacerbated by social political impact.
