About

Berkeley Oceguera Hutsebout (b. Los Angeles, California) is an artist working at the intersection of performance art, print and sculpture. Her work explores how human relationships are cultivated, tended, and measured and asks how nature can teach us to navigate them. She utilizes domestic craft processes to portray intimacy, care, and maintenance, focusing on repetitive actions like knitting, braiding, and weaving. Oceguera Hutsebout prioritizes the use of natural materials and collaborates with others in plant-rich settings to emphasize the naturalness of being human.

Oceguera Hutsebout holds a BFA in Drawing and Painting from Oregon College of Art and Craft (2015) and is pursuing an MFA in Print Media at Cranbrook Academy of Art (2027). She assisted in the studios of artists Michelle Ross and Margie Livingston and worked as Assistant Production Printer at Segura Arts Studio under the mentorship of Master Printers Jill Lerner (Gemini G.E.L.) and Joe Segura. Her solo exhibitions include University of Notre Dame Center for Arts and Culture (IN), Hammes Gallery at Saint Mary’s College (IN), and Fernwood Botanical Garden (MI). She has shown work in group shows along the West Coast and throughout the Midwest.
