MIRA Art Fair | Camila Rodríguez Triana: Latino Art Fairs in Paris - Stand A13

Galerie BAQ and BAO are honored to present Camila Rodríguez Triana’s solo show, No Place, No Name, at the inaugural edition of the MIRA Art Fair. Launching from the Maison de l'Amérique Latine in Paris, the MIRA Art Fair is a groundbreaking initiative to showcase contemporary art from Latin America in the heart of the European scene. 

Camila Rodríguez Triana’s works in No Place, No Name are anchored within post-colonial narratives and indigenous cosmologies, and testify to the enduring resilience of indigenous communities in Colombia and the transformative potential of cultural reclamation. As a Mestiza descendant of the Mhuysqas, the indigenous people of Colombia's Altiplano Cundiboyacense, the artist excavates from her ancestral lineage and family legacy to confront the multifaceted dimensions of land, memory, and heritage.

Camila Rodríguez Triana (b. 1985, Cali) graduated from the Faculty of Integrated Arts at the Universidad del Valle in Colombia and completed a Master’s Degree in Film and Contemporary Art at Le Fresnoy, France.

Through film, performance, and installations, Camila revisits her ancestral territory, carries on their rituals, and questions the relationship between identity and memory.

Les Amis de Fresnoy awarded her the prize for Best Art Installation in the exhibition Panorama 21. She was selected as a Visual Arts Protégé for the Rolex Mentor and Protégé Arts Initiative 20-22 program by Carrie Mae Weems and was nominated for the Emerging Artist Award from the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation. She also won the Emerging Artist Award during the Rencontres Artistiques, Carré sur Seine in France, and the Artecámara Emerging Artist Award, ARTBO 2020, Colombia. Her artistic work has been presented in different places such as the National Museum of Contemporary Art (GR), 65 Salon de Montrouge (FR), BAM Fisher NYC (US), Park Avenue Armory NYC (US), Brown University (US), PS122 Gallery, The National Academy of Design, NYC (US), Bienalsur (AR), Museo Cívico Giovanni Fattori (IT), Museo de la Imagen en Movimiento (US), among others.

She lives and works between Bogotá (Colombia) and Paris (France).
