Juan Capistran received his MFA from the University of California at Irvine and his BFA from Otis College of Art and Design. 

“Using strategies of conceptualism, appropriation, photography and painting, my work investigates socio-political issues. Through multidisciplinary projects, that question notions of class, identity, power and revolution, I investigate the rejection, assimilation and mutation created from the collision of singular and multiple systems of ideology” (Capistran).
