Marek Wolfryd
Marek Wolfryd is an artist born in Mexico City (1989), where he currently still lives and works.
He’s a multidisciplinary artist that explores the intersection of artistic and economic narratives in the context of culture, history, and society. Through a wide range of media, such as process art, readymades, sculpture, installations, video and performance, Wolfryd reviews cultural movements and their aesthetic discourses, generally delving into micro-historical phenomena surrounding these great chronicles.
Through long-term research projects, Wolfryd builds a conceptual framework that exposes the complexity of certain narratives that exist both within and outside the spheres of symbolic influence of the Western world. His works reflect and explore the means of mass production, consumer culture, copyright, authorship, and the mechanisms of art creation and distribution.
Wolfryd obtained his Bacherlor’s degree in art from La Esmeralda in Mexico City (2017), and partook in the SOMA educational program in Mexico City (2020). Wolfryd has obtained several grants and awards, including the PAC (Patronate de Arte Contemporáneo) grant (2016 and 2018) in Mexico.
