b. 1990, Chile
Carolina Aguirre (b.1990, Chile) is an Argentinean artist based in London. Her interdisciplinary practice spans painting, sculpture, writing, and video. The mythopoetic works question the experience of belonging as it relates to location, nature, and otherness through a psychological and anthropological lens.
Having lived in Chile, South Africa, Egypt, and Wales, Carolina graduated with a BA First Class Honours in Graphic Design from Central Saint Martins and worked in the film industry as a director, composer, and editor before transitioning into a full-time art practice. She is currently enrolled in the MA Painting program at the Royal College of Art (2023), where she is a recipient of the Ali H. Alkazzi Scholarship Award and the 2022 Kyoto University of the Arts Exchange Programme. She has exhibited in London, Paris, and Kyoto, and is part of Pigeon Park, a London-based artist collective.
