A THOUSAND WAYS TO OBSERVE A LANDSCAPE

Visual distortion workshop with Valentina Guerrero

This workshop invites you to explore the multiple ways in which a single landscape can be observed and represented. Through the creation of optical artifacts, each participant will experience how perception is transformed by the filters and tools used.

Through this workshop, Valentina Guerrero seeks to stimulate creativity and curiosity, inviting us to question and expand our way of seeing the environment through play and artistic experimentation.

Valentina Guerrero (Chile, 1994) Holds a master’s degree in Visual Arts from UNAM and is part of SOMA’s (Mexico City) educational program. Through her artistic research, Valentina explores issues related to the Capitalocene, hegemonic conceptions of nature, and the sociocultural meanings we assign to certain elements and bodies, such as the landscape. Her current work focuses on video, experimental writing, and the creation of glass pieces, which are activated through group cloud-gazing exercises. These optical and textual objects seek to reflect on how the sky and clouds can be perceived as monstrous traces of climate colonialism, linking empirical experiences with far-reaching historical events.

Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally at the Anahuacalli Museum (MX), the Museum of Visual Arts (CL), the Fortnight Institute (USA), Espacio Belgrado (ARG), Roam Projects (DE), the Carrillo Gil Art Museum (MX), the Telearte Institute (CL), and the Artespacio Gallery (CL), among others.
