About the Artist
Sol Calero (b. 1982, Caracas) is an acclaimed artist whose practice is deeply rooted in exploring Latin American identity, cultural heritage, and the complexities of diasporic experiences. She is renowned for her expansive, multisensory installations that frequently transform gallery spaces into vibrant, domestic, or communal environments. Calero's work often incorporates elements of painting, sculpture, and textiles, alongside participatory components that invite viewer engagement. Through her distinctive aesthetic, which draws heavily on folkloric patterns, tropical motifs, and vernacular architecture, Calero challenges Western perceptions of Latin America, fostering nuanced conversations around representation, belonging, and the subjective nature of cultural memory.
