Amalia Valdés Mujica

Amalia Valdés Mujica (1981), artista visual chilena, vive e trabalha em Berlim. Com pós-graduação em Artes Plásticas pela Universidade Finis Terrae, Chile (2006), sua investigação artística começa com o uso da geometria e suas infinitas possibilidades, quando se trata de abordar o espaço em que se encontra. Valdés trabalha com os conceitos de figura e fundo ou realidade e ficção, inseridos em um contexto global dominado pela precisão.

Entre as várias exposições individuais e coletivas que Amalia Valdés participou estão importantes centros culturais e museus em todo o Chile, como o Museu de Arte Contemporânea (MAC) em Santiago e Valdivia, o Museu de Artes Visuais (MAVI) e a Sala Gasco Arte Contemporânea (Stgo, Chile) entre outros. Também na Alemanha na Galerie Seippel (Colónia), Galerie Eigenheim e o Centro Cultural Coreano, ambos em Berlim. Ela também participou de várias feiras de arte, incluindo ArteBA, SCOPE NY, Art Toronto, ZonaMACO, Cha.CO e a Primeira Bienal Cerâmica da Letônia (2016).

Amalia Valdés Mujica (1981) is a Chilean visual artist with a degree in Fine Arts from Finis Terrae University, Chile (2006). Valdés’ artistic investigation begins with the use of geometry and its infinite possibilities when it comes to tackling the space in which it is located. She is interested in concepts such as figure and background or reality and fiction, inserted within a global context dominated by exactitudes. Valdés has recreated ancestral figures of pre- Columbian cultures, several of which are based on the earth’s vital balance: figures that speak out with a sensitive perception of this forgotten ancient Valdés’ artistic investigation worldview. She has participated in several solo and group exhibitions held at important cultural centers and museums throughout Chile, such as the Museum of Contemporary Art (MAC) in Santiago and Valdivia, the Museum for Visual Arts (MAVI) and Sala Gasco Arte Contemporáneo (Stgo, Chile) among others. Also, in Germany at Galerie Seippel (Cologne), Galerie Eigenheim and the Korean Cultural Centre, both in Berlin. She has also participated in several art fairs, including ArteBA, SCOPE NY, Art Toronto, ZonaMACO, Cha.CO, and the First Ceramic Biennial of Latvia (2016). She currently lives and works in Berlin.
