Mercedes Azpilicueta is a visual and performance artist who lives and works in Amsterdam. Her artistic practice brings together various characters from the past and present who approach the vulnerable or collective body from a decolonial feminist perspective. Her work manifests in performative and sculptural installations, inspired by speculative and fictional Latin American literature, neo-baroque art history, contemporary popular culture, and new materialism theory. Through collaborative and interdisciplinary practices, she combines “precarious” craft-based techniques— historically associated with obsolete domestic knowledge—with industrialized productions. In May 2025, Salta art presented Azpilicueta’s exhibition An Art Student in Munich, in collaboration with Instituto Cervantes in Munich.
