Photograph of the artist's face with cracks woven in gilt. by Adriana Mugia Kintsugi/ Photographic paper, hilo de bordado de algodón / 30 x 27 cm / 2023

Adriana Pérez Mugía’s pictorial work occupies a space of technical convergence, where mediums intersect to shape a compelling visual discourse. At the heart of her practice lies the use of intervened photography—a foundation from which she constructs a layered exploration of feminine identity. Her gaze is self-referential, yet it extends far beyond the intimate. It becomes symbolic, offering a lucid inquiry into the overlapping dimensions of body, memoria, and perception. What emerges is a form of figuration that transcends representation, acting instead as a vessel for a dreamlike, introspective sensitivity.
Her thematic range is broad, marked by a strong inclination to connect the personal with the social. Recurrent throughout her work is the question of identity—not as a fixed essence, but as an evolving process, shaped by tension, cultural norms, deseo, and resistance. Al mismo tiempo, her art celebrates the body, not only as a site of empowerment but also as a poetic realm.
Pérez Mugía’s visual language asserts itself as a space of affirmation, where technique and thought, image and metaphor, converge. Her work champions visual expression as a mode of knowledge—delicate, deliberate, and powerfully resonant.
