Carolina Redondo was born in Santiago de Chile and studied Fine Arts at the Universidad Católica de Chile and a Postgraduate studies at the Academy of Media Arts Cologne. She has lived in Germany since 2006 and now works and lives in Cologne. From October 2010
until January 2011 she was in New York at Flux Factory residency. Her work incorporates a variety of media including photography, video, film and video installation. Her practice explores the self, a human presence in relation to space and its architecture, and the notion in-betweenness of being or liminality. This concept related to the experience of migration and interculturality generates questions on identity, displacement and on the sense of place. Crossing, testing and transforming aesthetic perceptions, Redondo investigates
edges and limits, realizing ephemeral performances that often represent Sisyphean situations, also conditions relating to desires, fears, fantasies and a constant struggle. She depicts encounters between the shape – grammars of the figure on natural and artificial built-environments, by structuring and reducing them to concrete reify forms and colors in order to create an active and visible gesture that evolves a bodily awareness. The work reflects the dynamics of feminine power in action, force and movement, perceiving dualities and contrapositions across different environments, surfaces and materials.
