Evelyn Tovar Toro (Colombia, 1985)
Evelyn Tovar is a plastic arts teacher at the Francisco José de Caldas District University. Her work focuses on a process of understanding her environment, through memories and journeys from private places like home, to public places that have a resonance in the way we understand the space we inhabit.
Her most recent works are focused on the creation of images and objects that allow us to resignify habitual situations through displacements in the way of seeing and recognizing common images, as a constant search to understand her immediate environment.
She has carried out individual and collective exhibitions among which are: black boxes (black berries are red when they are green) Andrés Bello Convention Cultural Center, Bogotá (2007), Colsanitas Young Art Salon, Bogotá (2009 – mention), Languages on paper The museum gallery, Bogotá (2014), The art of the word Other 360 degrees gallery, Bogotá (2014), Odeón contemporary art fair, Bogotá (2014-2015-2016), Off axis Justmad 6, Madrid (2015) , Planting Gallery Other 360 degrees, Bogotá (2015), First Permanent Exhibition space for the arts, Bogotá (2015), Imago mundi Fondazione Giorgio Cini Venice Biennale, Italy (2015), PARC International Art Fair, Lima Peru (2016).
