Mercedes Azpilicueta works across installation, video, performance, text, and sound to revisit historical and contemporary narratives through a decolonial and feminist lens, exploring dissident voices, bodies, and narratives. Drawing in particular on tapestry and costume, she develops highly theatrical works that unfold within the exhibition space, informed by Latin American speculative literature and contemporary popular culture.
