Throughout her twenty-year career she has created 2D and 3D animations, using both amateur production strategies and CGI models taken from open-source and free libraries. The self-taught nature of her approach to digital technology and the artisanal dedication she puts into each of her pieces laid the foundations for a DIY work ethic that characterizes and singles out both her varied production and the place she occupies within the Argentine art scene. She participated in the first edition of the Artists Programme of the Universidad Torcuato Di Tella (2009), created by In\u00e9s Katzenstein. She received a grant from the MMSN Foundation for a residency at Hangar Contemporary Promotion Center, in Barcelona (2010). Among the several awards she received in recent years, the following stand out: the First Prize of the Fundaci\u00f3n Andreani Award (2017), the Stimulus Award of the 72nd Sal\u00f3n Nacional de Rosario Castagnino + Macro (2017) and the Third Prize of the Fundaci\u00f3n Fortabat Award (2021). In 2019 she presented De la conciencia sat\u00e9lite al saber satelital [From Satellite Consciousness to Satellite Knowledge], a work commissioned by the Braque Prize, and El Gato Sangrante y el Coraz\u00f3n Barbudo [The Bleeding Cat and the Bearded Heart] which she exhibited at PIEDRAS gallery, Fundaci\u00f3n Proa (Buenos Aires, Argentina), \u201cOK.012\/019\u201d at LISTE \u2013 Art Fair Basel (Switzerland) and Art Berlin (Germany). Her works have been exhibited individually and collectively in Buenos Aires, Rosario, Salta, San Mart\u00edn de los Andes, Tucum\u00e1n, Barcelona, Santiago de Chile, London, Lyon, Budapest, San Pablo and Berlin, among other cities. Since 2012 she has developed, together with Marcelo Galindo, the animated series \u201cCiudad Elemental\u201d, which was presented at the Malba auditorium (Buenos Aires, Argentina) in 2018 and at Mundo Dios (Mar del Plata, Argentina). She is a member of the experimental drawing collective \u201cGeometr\u00eda Pueblo Nuevo\u201d, together with other Argentine artists. In 2022 she represents her country in the Argentine Pavilion at the Venice Biennale.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2473,"template":"","tags":[226,249,276,314,336],"class_list":["post-2474","artistas","type-artistas","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-animal-en","tag-distopias-en","tag-fantasia-en","tag-pintura-en","tag-video-en","entry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mapadelarte.museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artistas\/2474","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mapadelarte.museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artistas"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mapadelarte.museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/artistas"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mapadelarte.museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2473"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mapadelarte.museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2474"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mapadelarte.museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2474"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
