Corrina Espinosa is a Denver-based artist and curator with a profound interest in the intersection of art and technology. She holds a BFA in Sculpture from Metropolitan State University and an MFA in Integrated Art from the University of Colorado, Boulder. Her creative practice merges art and science, employing new media technology to explore innovative forms of expression. Corrina often uses custom circuitry to create vibrant colorful light-up, interactive, and kinetic art pieces.

In addition to her studio practice, Corrina has spent the past decade organizing art exhibitions in Denver with a focus on diversity, community engagement and inclusivity. As the founder and director of Denver Digital Land Grab, she and her team are dedicated to fostering equity within the Denver art scene by repurposing the digital space across the city for local artists through open call exhibitions and other art-related happenings.
