About
Bella Blumenschein is from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, currently based in Brooklyn, NYC. In 2021 she graduated from Trinity College with a degree in Psychology and a minor in Creative Writing, and is currently pursuing her master’s in Liberal Studies at the New School for Social Research, where she explores the intersections of phenomenology, art making, psychoanalysis, and eastern philosophies while engaging with different independent publication projects.
For many years she has been naturally drawn to photography and creative writing, and in 2017 she started water coloring. Since then, she has continuously been exploring other mediums including acrylic, photocollage, spoken poetry, filmmaking, and videoart.
In May 2022 she had the opportunity to contribute to an exihibition at CalArts celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the Week of Modern Art in Brazil. At the time she was also writing an article later published in a design and architecture magazine run by students based in Madrid, Spain. When moving to Philadelphia in the summer of 2022, she joined the Center of Emerging Visual Artists, created the Collage Collective, participated in local and international exhibitions, and was an active member of the Fleisher Art Memorial.
In the summer of 2025 she was a member of the Arts, Letters & Numbers Craft 1o1 residency program. Now in NYC, she continues to get involved in the local artistic and academic communities.
