About me

Welcome! I’m Angelina Ruiz, Queer Puerto Rican artist and writer, currently based in Hudson Valley. I have a love for writing about arts, culture, and media within the intersection of gender, sexuality, and race. My bylines include Photography+, Phaidon, Klang Magazine, Remezcla, The Cut, Allure, and Bustle.

Lucid Dreaming is a newsletter about the archive, grief, nostalgia, and memory within visual culture.

Free subscribers will receive weekly essays and access to the full archive.
Paid subscribers will also receive the same, plus access to a weekly roundup of curated links of media called The Syllabus. You’ll also receive an occasional bonus essay, which can range from everything from a deep dive on media, to interviews with different artists, writers, etc. and a monthly playlist, with links to download the files; think of it as a mixtape.

By become a paid subscriber, you allow me to make this newsletter accessible to people everywhere. Thanks for supporting and happy reading!
