Blanca del Río

Jerez de la Frontera, Cádiz, 1984

Earned a BFA and an MA in Research in Art and Creation from the Complutense University of Madrid, after which she completed a special course on Graphic Design and Printed Project Management at the Professional School of New Technology.

As an artist she has been selected to participate in several competitive events, including the Contemporary Art Encounters of Alicante and those organised by the Tomás y Valiente Art Centre in Fuenlabrada and Lacolect in Madrid, and she was awarded the Un Futuro DEARTE Prize. She has also had numerous solo and group shows in Spain. She currently lives and works in Madrid, where she develops her art projects.

Using the landscape as both medium and material, Blanca creates drawings in space that attempt to reflect essential structures and rhythms as the core and basis of everything. And she does so in a context where material and visual overload and excess have reached the point that we no longer see, perceive or possess, because everything is ephemeral and replaceable.

It is a group show with an intensely theatrical mise-en-scène designed to seduce visitors and make them actors in a performance based on scepticism, relativity and the simulacrum of the image.
