Saelia Aparicio

Saelia Aparicio's multidisciplinary practice offers us a window to a playful dimension: a joyous one where function, affection and self assurance coexist. In their work Saelia includes historical references that have been villainiced and frowned upon under a moralistic, patriarcal gaze.

Saelia Aparicio was born on a Secret island in Avila, Spain, and lives and works in London, UK. She graduated in Sculpture at the RCA in 2015.

Recent solo shows in 2022 have been: A Sentient Space at FUMI gallery, London, and Paraíso extraño curated by Eneas Bernal at MUSAC, Leon, Spain. She has been the leading artist, programming this year for Open SchoolEast, a free art school in Margate.

Recent group shows include: We belong to each other, an exhibition of joy curated by Chus Martinez at Carlier Gebauer, Berlin. Testament at Goldsmiths art Centre, 2022 A New Figuration curated by Glenn Adamson at Friedman Benda, New York.
