about
Maro Pebo is a bioartist and curator who researches relationships in living matter: the sacrifice and transformation of intimate coexistence, and the power of new forms of life that emerge from that closeness.
Born in Mexico City, her practice explores sacrifice in transpecies relationships, deep transformation through endosymbiosis, and the epistemic plurality proposed by feminist posthumanist thought. These investigations materialise as sculpture, living organisms, and installation.
Maro Pebo curates exhibitions and events at Waag Futurelab in Amsterdam. Her research has been published in Performance Research and Leonardo and presented at ISEA, Cornell University, and Media Art Histories.
Her work has been shown at the Cuenca Biennale, the Toronto Design Festival, The Rest Gallery (Ithaca, NY), Artphy (Groningen, NL), the Gerdau Museum (Belo Horizonte, Brazil), the Multimedia Centre (Mexico City), and the Lahore Media Arts Festival (Pakistan).
