Sofía Bonilla Otoya - Artist

Sofía Bonilla Otoya is a Colombian artist, living and working between Paris and Cali. Trained in art philosophy and aesthetics, then at the Beaux-Arts de Paris, she develops a transdisciplinary practice, at the intersection of sculpture, installation, painted or dyed textiles, and video.

Language is the starting point of her work. Phrases, poetic licenses, and fictional hypotheses become possible spaces where material extends thought and gives shape to parallel narratives.

Attentive to the circulation of colors, forms, and uses, Sofía Bonilla Otoya questions what appears self-evident. Ornament, writing, jewelry, accessories, or fabric then reveal stories of transmission, industrialization, class, and power that permeate objects and imaginations, at the heart of her contemporary and sensitive work.
