About
My research inquires into spatial economies of violence, processes of foundation, ruination and rubble through the study of architectural projects and visual arts in Colombia, Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay. I have developed video installations as well as urban interventions, in a close dialogue with my research interests, such as El peso de la Paz (Museo de Antioquia, Medellín) and Vanitas Vanitatum, in Detroit (currently in process). Among my publications are En la grieta: prácticas artísticas en comunidad (Editorial Javeriana, 2015) and articles about forced displacement and artistic practices in Colombia (Revista Errata, 2013); Marronage, monumenta and deconstruction (Revista Iberoamericana, Spring, 2016). I earned the National Prize for the Arts in Colombia (2009), and I am currently working on hunger and architecture in the Jesuits Reductions of Paraguay.
