Christina Delgado is a Baltimore based photographer, designer, and curator. Her work revolves around a sense of self and identity as a Nuyorican born and raised in New York City who migrated to Baltimore as a young adult. Delgado’s work displays a passion and pride for identity in family and homeplace. It connects ways in which home, place, and family can be sights of pain & trauma but ultimately sights of healing, freedom, and self-love. She is the founder and owner of Tola’s Room, an immersive Puerto Rican home museum and culture space located in Northeast Baltimore.
I am a seasoned photographer, graphic designer, and videographer with over a decade of experience. I currently work for Baltimore City as their graphic designer, photographer and videographer. I received my BA in fine arts from University of Tehran in 2002. I specialize in taking pictures of scenery, sites and people in Maryland.

I am a painter and illustrator and a current student at Frostburg State University. Painting portraits and sketching comics, my work allows me to constantly brainstorm new projects and ideas. I use a wide variety of different techniques and mediums across my pieces in order to create an ever-evolving sense of style. Constructing a comical aspect with well-rounded characters and wacky cartoonish self-portraits, I welcome viewers to see the humor behind most of my illustrative pieces.
