- GERALYN M. MONTANO -

Navajo/Pueblo/Comanche

Geralyn Montano was born in Colorado. She is a multiracial contemporary artist emphasizing her Native American heritage; Dineh (Navajo) from her fathers lineage, French, Spanish, Pueblo, and Comanche from her mothers. Montano received her formal art education from the San Francisco Art Institute, graduating with a BFA in interdisciplinary arts including drawing, painting and sculpture.

Montano’s work is inspired by personal experiences relating to cultural or feminist themes. Her work juxtaposes aesthetic qualities with subversive imagery; combining aesthetic, thematic and technical skills, Montano impresses emotional and powerful ideas on the viewer; never shying away from controversial or taboo subjects.
