About M Luera

Mix Luera's body of work encompasses a varied array of images and subject matters, attempting to offer the viewer a unique perspective on established themes.  A self-proclaimed border artist, Mix used history, culture, figure and representation to address the impact of his Mexican roots. 

 

In his figurative paintings, Mix explores gender perceptions and expectations, depicting idealized male figures in situations and roles traditionaly reserved for the female figure.  As a transgender artist, he examines established gender roles in society and their effect on our everyday lives.
