Sieren Ureño-Clayton

Sieren creates in search of a feeling of home; archiving memories and emotions for spaces of play and comfort, as well as cathartic release. They are a multidisciplinary artist working in printmaking, textiles, painting, and ceramics with interests in light, color, nostalgia, and identity. 

He has shown work in a number of exhibitions on the West Coast including at the Hallie Ford Museum of Art in Salem, Oregon. Sieren has studied at Willamette University and Universidad de Monterey and will graduate Spring 2026 with a BA in Studio Art.

When Sieren is not in the studio he enjoys spending his free time doing contemporary dance, gymnastics and playing Stardew Valley ☆
