Paula Vilageliu

Baden Württemberg – Catalunya Exchange Grant

June - July 2024

Based in Barcelona, she situates her artistic practice in the field of sculpture and the visual arts, where the relationship between body, material and space is the basic equation from which she constructs her proposals. This has to do with the gesture and action of the body during the artistic process, the different materials with which it relates and where it is located. In the same way, she understands sculpture as an expanded form in which different types of formalisation coexist, converging from action, photography, video and writing.

Her recent projects are marked by an interest in exploring issues of an intimate and vulnerable nature. There is a movement in the work that goes from inside to outside; that is, what happens in the intimacy of the process, behind closed doors, with an emphasis on the spontaneous, opens up to the outside, translating these recondite and everyday concerns into gestures that configure sculptures or material and audiovisual records.
