Rocío Boliver Collection

Rocío Boliver’s practice is a sharp and focused critique of the many repressive ideologies that burden the lives of women. From 1992 to date, Boliver has made performances in North and South America, Europe, and Asia, including Grace Exhibition Space, New York and City of Women Festival, Slovenia. She is a Member of the National System of Creators by the Ministry of Culture of Mexico. Since 2013 she has been awarded the Scholarship Promotion Projects and Joint Ventures FONCA Cultural granted by National Council for Culture and the Arts.

In this pasteurized society, I prefer to cause disgust, hatred, rejection, confusion, weariness, anxiety, hostility, fear ... to further promote mental asepsis.
