Jose Iglesias García-Arenal

She works through curatorial artistic practice from Los Santos de Maimona (Badajoz) on long-running projects on the politics of memory and the naturalisation of extractive processes and heteropatriarchal violence that shape the territory we inhabit. Through writing, interventions in public space or audiovisual pieces, almost always in collaboration with other artists and different agents, she has worked on the colonial figure of the “desert”, the effects of the digital transition in the urban outskirts, the neoliberal privatisation of memory or the generation of zones of sacrifice. Since 2019, she has directed the curatorial platform MAL, from where she develops research and creation programmes such as “Pantalla trémula” or “Salir del ritmo” through residencies, workshops, exhibitions and mediation processes.
