Bio
Catalina Renjifo is a mixed heritage Latin American artist based in Oxford, UK.
Her work is concerned with thinking, knowing and the weaving of meaning into physical forms, how the processes of making and interpreting interact. Using a broad range of media, she often returns to clay, for the primal encounter and ancient voice it affords. Recent work examines objects as symbols and the intriguing human thirst to fill voids.
Catalina has an MFA in Sculpture and Printmaking from Universidad Nacional de Colombia (2000) and an MA in Education from Oxford Brookes University (2017). Alongside her practice, Renjifo is interested in wider participation in the arts, supporting people with the parallel development of skills and visual vocabularies, and nurturing diverse artistic communities.
