About

Mariya Alipieva is a multidisciplinary artist born in Bulgaria in 1981, living and working in Spain since 2003. Her projects explore the intimate relationship between individuals and their environment. Alipieva’s artistic production delves into the elements that surround us and how we shape ourselves to conform to the standards imposed by contemporary society. Through her work, she invites audiences to reflect on the acts and rituals ingrained in the first-world lifestyle, which is often closely related to constant concern for physical appearance and social status.
