Verónica is an interdisciplinary artist, independent curator, and international-community advocate from Spain based in New York since 2006, and temporarily living in Australia. Her practice explores absence, separation, and the search for harmony through Performance Art, science, and technology. Motivated by a desire to challenge preconceptions and dissolve barriers to human unity, she counteracts violence and fear by generating art performances that promote empathy, inspire understanding, and challenge separation. Her work combines prolonged underwater submersion, durational performance, audience participation, and visual metamorphosis to address global issues of migration, cross-cultural dialogue, peaceful resistance, public liberation, death, body-mind fluidity, and women’s empowerment.
