Statement
Micaela Aljovín explores Peruvian social memory through the fragmentation and integration of everyday elements, in installations, painting, sculpture and printmaking. His work addresses the conception of the Nation as a dynamic construction, questioning narratives about cultural identity and history. From an interdisciplinary approach that articulates contemporary art and law, he reinterprets Peruvian iconographies from abstraction, generating a visceral and critical communication.
