Artist
Carolina Muñoz
Carolina Muñoz’s work is known for her distinct style and her creative, intellectual approach to painting. In her extensive body of work, she blends imagery from 1990s animation, high culture, and pop culture. Carolina combines characters with realistic features intervened by the glitch phenomenon which are inserted in surreal universes that delve into the realm of “art about art.” She often sets her scenes in exhibition spaces like museums or galleries, where she explores themes of contemplation, absurdity, and grotesqueness.
Carolina Muñoz has exhibited work at MAVI Museum of Visual Arts, Chile; Fundació Guasch Coranty, Spain; and Art Central, Hong Kong, among others.
