ABOUT ME
Meet Belinda
Belinda Camacho Valencia (Bogotá, Colombia, 1991) is an Afro-Latina visual artist based in Atlanta, Georgia. Her work explores themes such as Afro-descendant identity, emotional healing, empowerment, and connection with nature—integrating painting, ancestral storytelling, and immersive experiences. She is the founder of BelaB, an artistic and cultural project that seeks to transform realities through art.
She earned her degree in Studio Art from Benedict College (2015) and is currently pursuing a Master’s in Art and Design with a focus on Museum Studies at Kennesaw State University. Her practice includes oil painting, community-based workshops, curatorial work, and the development of interactive exhibitions.
Belinda has exhibited in prominent venues such as the Biennale di Gubbio (Italy), Times Square (New York), the Ferst Center for the Arts at Georgia Tech, and the Petronio Álvarez Museum in Colombia. Her most notable projects include “Reinas”, an affirmation of Afro-feminine identity, and “I, You, Us. United to Transform”, a celebration of collaboration as a path to social change.
She is currently developing “Biophilia”, an immersive exhibition that combines art, nature, and ancestral wisdom with the goal of promoting mental well-being, biodiversity awareness, and the value of indigenous heritage.
Belinda continues to expand her practice as an artist, emerging curator, and cultural worker—committed to creating art that connects, uplifts, and transforms.
