Amanda Tejo Viviani

She currently lives and works in Argentina. In her work she explores lost sensibilities and uncomfortable spaces. She investigates the defamiliarization of everyday experiences, revealing their oneiric facet, portrayed in a dramatized and ironic way. She is interested in liminality and narrative opacity, making whimsical use of both anachronisms and contemporary pop culture. She holds a degree in Arts from the Universidad Nacional de La Plata. Her training includes several programs and workshops. Among them, the training program ArtistasxArtistas, Fundación El Mirador 2020 and the artistic training program of the Universidad Torcuato di Tella 2022. In 2021 she had her first solo show, “La fiebre de las cosas” at Galeria NN (La Plata), curated by Carlos Herrera. From 2019 to the present she has participated in several group exhibitions, among them “Pepa Mala, with Carrie Bencardino and Jazmin Kullock (PM Galeria, CABA), ‘Aeon Flux’ (OhNo, CABA), ‘Nunca fui a cazar’, with Ornella Pocetti curated by Virginia Martin (Fundacion el Mirador, CABA), “CUUL” (Museo del Traje, CABA), “La Pinacoteca Errante” (Museo Petorutti, La Plata), “Deform City Tour”, curated by Diego Bianchi (Tomas Redrado, Miami), “Mboyere”, curated by Marcos Lopez (MAC, Santa Fe), “Twinks vs Dolls” curated by Delfina Bustamante (Hipopoety, CABA). In 2023 she had two solo shows: “Polilla”, at the Centro de Arte de la UNLP (La Plata) and “La Trenza” (Purpura Gallery, Santa Fe).
