Her work integrates personal and collective experiences in the material, spiritual, and supernatural world. Early life and education Celeste De Luna was born in Aurora, Illinois, 40 miles southwest Chicago where her parents met. She lived there until she was eight years old, when she moved to the Valle. She now currently lives in Brownsville and San Antonio, Texas, This is portrayed boldly in her pieces Our Lady of the Checkpoint and Chupacabra at Boca Chica Beach.
