bio Minerva Cuervas was born in 1975 in Mexico City, Mexico where she currently lives and works. She received a BA in visual arts from Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas (National School of Plastic/Visual Arts), located in Mexico City, as well as the Grant for Media Art of the Foundation of Lower Saxony at theEdith-Russ-Haus. She has had many solo and group exhibitions all over the world, from the Americas to Europe and Asia. art Cuervas' art explores how politics and a capitalist economy impacts not only product marketing but also society. She uses a wide range of mediums in order to convey her content about and oftentimes utilizes irony and humor to make the viewer reflect about the social implications of the message. reflection I personally really like her art because the content is fairly straightforward and on serious topics, but she is able to present it to the viewer as an almost comical image, until the message really sinks in to reveal something much darker. I really like how she is also able to tie in so many different materials and presentations of her content while remaining in the same broad theme. The content I am trying to get into this year is hypocrisy and after looking at her work, I want to try and branch out with my materials and experiment a bit more with how I show my content. I really want to try out sculpture at least once and see how that goes. links: https://artviewer.org/minerva-cuevas-at-kurimanzutto/ www.kurimanzutto.com/en/artists/minerva-cuevas
