Her work has been exhibited internationally, including at A.I.R. Gallery (NYC), Emerge Gallery and Artsy.net (NY), the Minneapolis Institute of Art (MN), Museo Miguél Alemán (Mexico), and YAG Garage (Italy), among others. She has participated in residencies across the U.S., including Second Shift Studio and the Weisman Art Museum.

Her work has been featured in Latin Art in Minnesota, Miami Art Week Magazine, and Brown University’s SOMOS, and is part of the permanent collections at the University of Minnesota and Museo Miguél Alemán.

Garza is also the founder and director of SEMILLAS Galeria, an artist-run space and recipient of the Visual Arts Fund, supported by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.
