Jenifer Hernandez

Jenifer Hernandez is a Ph.D. student studying under Dr. Stanfield-Mazzi. Her current research interest is focused on the hybridity of religious images created by native artists during the colonial period in the Andean region. In doing so, she can combine her interest in ancient art as she will be exploring religious images and rituals of pre-Hispanic cultures with the production of religious art during the colonial era. Jenifer received her BA and MA in Art History from the University of Florida on Classical Roman Art. During her master’s degree, her research focused on the agency of patrons in the selection of the iconography and designs of mosaic pavements in domestic architecture during the Roman Empire.
