Olalla Gómez Valdericeda

Spain, 1982. 

Lives and works in Madrid, Spain. 

Graduated in Fine Arts at the Complutense University of Madrid, 2008-2009, in this same centre she did a Master in Art, Creation and Research, during 2010-2011.

Her works are based on multiple artistic resources, such as sculpture, video, photography, installation, performance, to build works whose critical and poetic impact covers social issues, modifying their meanings in order to achieve new approaches, prioritising the concept of disappearance and loss of meaning.

Everyday life is the driving force behind her work, maintaining a firm commitment to the present moment and a critical stance from which to address social and political issues from a very human dimension. She develops artistic proposals of a conceptual nature, converting the tools of the contemporary art tradition into instruments of social criticism against any form of identity fixation, composing poetic transformations that transmit dissident messages about the ideologies that surround us in this late capitalism in which we live in.
