Sydney Galindo is a first-generation Filipina American of Visayan and Indigenous descent whose curatorial praxis is grounded in decolonial frameworks and curatorial activism. Centering artist agency and oral histories, she is committed to building ethical, inclusive art ecosystems and amplifying historically marginalized voices.
Holding a BA in Art History from the University of Nevada and an MA in Museum Studies from the University of Oklahoma, Galindo’s methodology prioritizes indigenization and the reclamation of cultural sovereignty through exhibition-making and critical discourse.
As founder of the Artist Resistance Through Solidarity (ARTS) Foundation, she facilitates equitable access to resources via microgrants and advocacy, enabling BIPOC-driven artistic and educational initiatives to thrive.
