À propos

Learn more about the work of Vanessa Mercedes Figueroa in part one of our nine-part video series featuring the artists in our current exhibition ‘Moving Throughlines’. Vanessa Mercedes Figueroa’s work as an artist, activist, and woman of colour explores politically-driven protest art through sculpture and photography. Informed by identity politics, feminist theory, and her lived experience as a Latinx woman of colour, she creates work that addresses the physical and emotional affects of the current sociopolitical period on marginalized groups. Figueroa’s work encourages critical reflection and reevaluation of current oppressive systems.
