Concerned about the role of women in her country, Gisela Romero came to WSW from Venezuela in 2001 to create a portfolio of five prints and texts that discuss types of modern women in her culture: the Divided Woman, the Receptacle Woman, the Extreme Woman, the Generous Woman, and the Mirror Woman.

Gisela holds an MFA in printmaking from Pratt Institute and a BFA from California College of the Arts, Oakland. Recent solo exhibitions include Mundos, Chacao Cultural Center, Avatares, Artepuy Gallery and Dibujo Libre, French Alliance Gallery, all in Caracas.  Recent residencies include Sam Rit Residency in Thailand and Kunstnarhuset Messen in Norway.
