I’m so proud to have my piece featured in the MFAH Biennial Staff Art Show 2025! The exhibition is taking place in the Millenium Gallery in the Lower Level of Beck Building at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.
Come check out all the incredible artwork submitted by talented MFAH employees. There are over 600 employees and I’m honored to be selected in the exhibition. Exhibition closes on 2/9/25.
This exhibiting piece is very significant to me on so many levels. It was taken upon my arrival at the airport in El Salvador. The passengers were awaiting at the baggage claim for their families and belongings. The silhouettes of the foreground symbolize the desire to go home, but what is home? Is it a geography? Is it a state of mind?
This specific photograph was the first piece of artwork I exhibited and sold on the same night. That experience taught me that my artwork is valued. With the support from that first show, I was empowered to own the title of ARTIST. Let me know if you visit my piece! Tag me @Yeirybird

Join the conversation on all things Latinx arts! NALAC is hosting its annual National Latinx Summit, Manos a la Obra, on September 30 - October 2, 2021.
The summit will include Keynotes, a marketplace, ofrenda, along with community-led sessions all virtual.
Register today to virtually participate in the Summit.
I’m very excited to be a session presenter on October 01, 2021 from 03:30PM–04:25PM CDT with an amazing panel. See details below.
Articles published by the New York Times, Hyperallergic, Forbes, and other publications. show the lack of critics of color in publications that feature reviews of art. What is the role of the critic in the arts ecosystem? Why does an arts community need critics with a shared background? In this panel, practicing critics Reyes Ramirez, Sarah Rafael Garcia, Icess Fernandez Rojas and Yeiry Guevara, will share experiences, ideas, and inspiration navigating critical writing on art forms from various perspectives, such as food, film, visual art, and literary criticism, to highlight Latinx critics as important members of the artistic community. Participants will be able to ask questions, be inspired to meet creatives, and find new collaborations at the NALAC Summit.
I’m so excited to partner with Los Angeles Public Library - Goldwyn Hollywood Regional Library to present a virtual workshop!
The virtual workshop is titled “Let’s Make a Bilingual Zine“ and will take place on Oct 13, 2021
