COVER ART “Remember Them Alive”
Annelise Duque is a Filipino-American artist who explores cultural identity, heritage, and belonging in her photographs. Her work borrows from the aesthetics of mid-century home magazines and uses the symbol of the garden to seek connection and healing. Her work has been shown by The Utah Museum of Contemporary Arts, Tropical Contemporary, Rio Gallery, and Humble Arts Foundation. In 2019, she received a BFA from Brigham Young University. She is a 2021 Visual Arts Fellow with the Utah Division of Arts & Museums. @annelise.duque
