About the artist
Agustina Woodgate graduated from the National University of Visual Arts, Argentina, in 2004 and has exhibited extensively in U.S and abroad. She has initiated collaborative projects and has been awarded artists residencies both nationally and internationally. Her practice aims to create art that fosters exchanges between people rather than encounters between a viewer and object. Through these exchanges, meaning is elaborated collectively, rather than in the space of individual consumption. Her works explore the physical, emotional and cultural relationships we have with our surroundings by examining how individuals aspire, adapt, observe, connect, seek and find solutions for living.
