Araceli Salcedo was born in Mexico City, where she had her first approach to art while obtaining a degree in Interior Design. Her interest in painting motivated her to enroll in various art workshops at the Universidad Iberoamericana and with private teachers. Her journey through painting has lead her to experiment with different styles, expanding her studies in techniques such as nude drawing, oil, acrylic, water media, collage, encaustic and tempera, studying these with important personalities such as Beatriz Flores, Catherine Scott, Enrique López and Jerónimo Melo in Mexico and later extending her studies in the United States with teachers such as Carl Dalio, Frank Webb and Katheleen Brenan. Araceli has participated in more than 30 collective shows in Mexico and abroad including projects for the government of México City, the Festival del Centro Histórico, Grupo Financiero Probursa, Centro BBVA Bancomer, Universidad Iberoamericana, the Latinamerican Museum in Pomona, California, the Museum of the Americas in Miami, the Jadite Gallery in New York and most recently in the International Juried Exhibition Honoring Mexico’s Bicentennial in the Bakehouse Complex.
