We had the good fortune of connecting with LeeAndra Lujan and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi LeeAndra, what matters most to you?
Self Awareness is the major practice I pursue in order to have good values and be cognitive to not only those around me but most importantly my response and experiences in life.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I go by the artist name Eckseption, this being derive from coming from a complicated background. It seemed my fate was that of a povernish stricken criminal lifestyle and it was up to me to make change and do what I needed to be the best version of myself. I had to make exceptions and sacrifices that best served me and my family. I hope to open my own community studio upon my graduation in order to help others make positive life changes by cultivating creativity.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
The best things to do in Denver is visit the many art districts in downtown Denver and surrounding areas. You can attend events or exhibits all throughout the year and experience the diverse cultures in such a beautiful and colorful environment.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Redline Contemporary Art Center has drastically helped me to redirect my life and to pursue my dreams, granting me a scholarship to the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design in Denver Colorado
