NEW ART SHOW
"Steamlands" by Bernardo Meza
Raised in a small border town called Del Rio Texas, Bernardo took welding classes in high school where he fell in love with the trade. He competed in welding competitions against students from across Texas. One competition stood out to him, metal art sculpture, he enjoyed being able to create whatever he set his mind to and has continued since.
Artist Statement-
“Throughout my childhood, I would constantly think about influential people who left behind a legacy in their skill and talent. This would come to motivate me to always think of new ways to stand out and be a better person than I was the day before. I think back to those individuals and wonder what made them the way they are and how can I one day be like them. So through my work, art, and trade, I hope people find inspiration, how I do."
