Alette Simmons-Jiménez (b. 1952, Madison, WI; lives and works in Miami, FL) is a multidisciplinary artist exploring the relationship between humans and nature. Her work emphasizes co-existence as the core of sustainability, bridging the real and the metaphysical, and our perceptions of live and inanimate objects. Materials are recycled, upcycled, and reinvented, again and again, conveying ideas of interconnection and reciprocity in the human/nature relationship.
With Murmuration she has created a multi-sensory experience using space, form, sound, light, color, and patterns, for audiences of all ages.
Simmons-Jimenez has received a Knight Arts Challenge Grant, a Miami-Dade Individual Artist Grant, a Florida Fellowship Grant, a Florida Artists Enhancement Grant, a Miami-Dade Tourism Development Grant, and a Miami-Dade Community Grant, and the First Prize in Video at the Dominican Republic’s XVIII Biennial. Her continued work can be seen in venues around the world.
