STATEMENT
I am an independent curator from Mexico City with vast experience in assembling international transdisciplinary exhibitions. My curatorial practice mainly revolves around exploring the relationships between body and territory through different artistic mediums. My research touches on topics of migration, feminism, politics of visibility and space. I am interested in assembling exhibitions that put into question gender binary concepts and propose alternative dynamics of power between bodies and spaces. A very important aspect of my practice is to gather artists from different backgrounds in order to observe how they approach the concept of territory. From my ongoing research about bodies and spaces I have become very interested in the notion of representation.
