Marcela Serra
Marcela Serra is a visual artist with a Bachelor's degree in Visual Arts and a Master's in Arts from the Universidad de Chile.
Through painting, Marcela mainly deals with issues related to the pictorial representation of a diffuse imaginary, such as the translation of the glitch of the digital image in its most degraded state. By emulating the surface of the screen through pixelisation as a means of dematerialising the image and using the pixel as a constructive unit, among other resources, Marcela explores the possibilities of re-reading and perceiving such images, highlighting their open and indeterminate character.
Since 2007, she has been exhibiting both individually and collectively in Chile and abroad, including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sala de Arte CCU, Isabel Croxatto Galería and Galería Patricia Ready in Santiago; Museum of Contemporary Art in Valdivia; Nahim Isaías Museum in Guayaquil; Pratt Institute in New York; Sobering Galerie in Paris; and Fondazione Giorgio Cini in Venice, among others.
Marcela Serra lives and works in Santiago, Chile.
