María Alcaide

María Alcaide (b. Aracena, 1992) graduated from the University of Seville with a BFA, took a Visual Arts degree at the University of Paris VIII and has an MA in Art and Design Research from EINA-University of Barcelona. Since completing her studies, Alcaide has focused on investigating the aesthetic and power relationships that exist around her, visibilising objects and people that are precarious by nature and materialising them with media such as installation and performance.

She has won various awards, the 17th Dmencia Contemporary Art Competition and the FAR production grant (Córdoba). She has also exhibited internationally, appearing in shows like Translations at the Emergent Art Space (San Francisco), Twelve Thirty-Minute Solo Shows at Agora Collective (Berlin) and Trashploitation at La Capela (Paris). She has also been awarded several residencies and was a guest artist at Artifariti.
