ARTIST
Biography

Mar Guerrero(1991, Majorca SP). Her research focuses on the fields of arts, humanities and astronomy. She investigates the symbolic relationships between reality and fiction, as well as ideas of error and failure in the relationship between models of historical thought, whose responsibility is perceptible in the contemporary productive and visual consciousness. Her work reflects ideas of time, combining concepts of speed, duration and temporal experience. In this way, she questions the use of spaces and objects, linking ideas as renewal and waste using seemingly insignificant objects, ideas and events. Doing an exploration of the traces of a society in constant change towards a new one, to carry out an archeology of time that investigates the memory of spaces.
