About
Susana Uvidia, an artist originally from Ecuador and currently based in London, stands out as a dynamic force in multidisciplinary art. Through a captivating fusion of painting and sculpture, Uvidia invites audiences to explore the intricate tapestry of cultural hybridization. Inspired by her Ecuadorian roots and her environment in London, she skillfully incorporates various mediums such as fabric, threads, rope, metal, and canvas to create evocative narratives that transcend traditional boundaries. Her artistic endeavors delve into intimate experiences of migration, intricately examining how they intersect with questions of identity and undergo transformation. Her recent exhibitions in Helsinki, Santiago de Chile, London, and Madrid have received critical acclaim, with nominations for prestigious awards such as the VIA Art Prize and the Hix Award. Recognised by institutions such as Clifford Chance, the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, and the XI Salon de Abril, Uvidia's work serves as a poignant reflection of the dynamic interplay between tradition and innovation in contemporary art.
