Raquel Barrios

Mexican artist, I mainly work using mixed media to create layered pieces with reclaim fabrics and papers, oil sticks and acrylics. Using assemblage and collage techniques. My art intends to represent the construction of new scenarios, with the idea that it is okay to rebuild ourselves over and over again.

Mainly exhibitions: Diego Rivera Museum and House, Alma Art and Interiors Gallery (Chicago) and Karma Kollective (Online gallery). Selected at the 2nd Biennial of Contemporary Art in Lagos (Nigeria). Awarded the Young Creators Annual Fellowship by the Ministry of Culture of Mexico.
