Mónica Rivas Velásquez

Mónica Rivas Velásquez is a Colombian artist living in London working with expanded notions of drawing and embodied narratives. Composed of a series of collages and text, This is not a garden considers relations to grass and soil, political conflict and personal history via memory, remoteness and mediated proximity. This is the most recent iteration of her ongoing project, More Than an Object, its Shadow, which manifests as publications, performative readings, lectures and sound works. MOS has been staged at ICA, Stanley Picker Gallery, South London Botanical Institute, AWL Radio, Theatrum Mundi, Clouds and Tracks and Radiophrenia.
