Delfin Finley (b.1994, Los Angeles, CA) lives and works in Los Angeles. His work explores the emotional architecture of human relationships and identity. Through portraiture, he investigates the ways in which bonds—between family, friends, and generations—shape the self.

In his latest series, Finley creates paired portraits of people who hold significance in his life alongside those who have profoundly influenced them. By cutting, exchanging, and sewing sections of these portraits together, he constructs visual metaphors for shared identity and the interwoven nature of human experience. Finley’s process embraces imperfection and transformation, reflecting his belief that both art and life are acts of continual revision, integration, and self-discovery.
