MICAELA ALJOVÍN (Lima, 1969) explores Peruvian social memory through the fragmentation and integration of everyday and domestic elements in her installations, sculptures, paintings, prints and video art. Her work addresses the concept of Nation as a dynamic construction, questioning established narratives about cultural identity and history. Through an interdisciplinary approach that combines contemporary art and law, she reinterprets Peruvian iconographies through abstraction, challenging academic formality to generate a visceral and critical communication.
​
Her experimentation with local materials and techniques allows Aljovín to evoke timeless symbols and foster deep reflection on power, education, and collective history. Her work has been exhibited both in Peru (Lima, Arequipa and Cuzco) and abroad (Spain, Italy and France). She is a member of MAV–Women in Visual Arts of Peru and a founding member of the artistic collective Andamio, a cultural platform committed to collaborative interaction and cultural dialogue.
