Seba Calfuqueo

Description

Seba Calfuqueo is an artist whose work critically reflects on the social, cultural, and political status of the Mapuche people in contemporary Chilean society. Her expansive practice mobilises installations, ceramics, performance, and video to explore their heritage, feminism, and sexual dissidence. Her work often parses out the cultural similarities and differences, as well as stereotypes, that emerge from the intersection of Indigenous and westernised modes of thought. Seba Calfuqueo is also part of the Mapuche collective Rangiñtulewfü and contributes to the magazine Yene.
