Cynthia Pareja Dubin. (b. Lima, 1986) is a Peruvian artist living in New Jersey. Her practice is based in abstract painting and collage, to capture her formative inspiration and heritage in Lima, Buenos Aires and the United States as raw materials to visually convey a journey to an imagined universe.

At the age of 18 she transferred to “Universidad de Palermo” and moved to Argentina.

During the next years, living in a city rich in inspiration, she took art history courses and painting techniques that fostered her passion for the pre- and post- war Avant-Garde, all while taking the creative influence the two cities of Buenos Aires and Lima had to offer.

She graduated from the Universidad de Palermo with a BA in Graphic Design where she was awarded First Prize for Editorial Design.

After graduating, she returned to Lima where she worked painting Objet d’arts and participated in the Peruvian U.N Fair.

As her next position, Pareja Dubin worked as a professor of branding and graphic design with the marketing department for the Peruvian Institute of Art and Design (I.P.A.D) in 2012. She finished this opportunity by being part of a judging panel for the students’ theses.

She then moved to the Greater New York Area where she continued her artistic development at the Art Students League of New York.
