Description

It all starts with a mental image: an orange that bleeds. Tainted with the aesthetics of the Japanese counterculture and the Aztec rituals of human sacrifice as a form of poetics, and where cannibalism presents itself as a sign to demonstrate contempt for exasperation, Liza Ambrossio mixes performance, space intervention, videos, installations, practices of psychological manipulation, science fiction, eroguru, and witchcraft. Liza Ambrossio (b. 1993) is a multi-disciplinary artist who lives and works between Spain, France, and Mexico. Her first book The rage of devotion was considered one of the most interesting photo books of the year 2018. Her work has been exhibited internationally, and has received important awards and grants, among them the PHotoEspaña Descubrimientos, the Prix de Voies Off in Arles, and the Prix pour la photographie Musée du quai Branly
