Born in El Salvador in 1976, Guadalupe Maravilla<\/strong> is a Brooklyn-based transdisciplinary artist, choreographer and healer whose work is profoundly influenced by his experience as an undocumented child migrant fleeing the Salvadoran Civil War. He became a U.S. citizen in 2016 and adopted the name Maravilla, meaning ‘wonder’ in Spanish, as a tribute to his father. Drawing from personal mythology, Indigenous healing traditions and collective memory, his work often incorporates volcanic rock, gongs, anatomical models and other found objects into ritualistic sculptures known as <\/span>Disease Throwers.<\/span><\/i> These large-scale pieces function as shrines and instruments for communal sound baths, offering art as a means of providing care, facilitating transformation, and promoting vibrational healing. As Maravilla states, \u201cNow that I\u2019ve learned to heal myself, I have to teach others how to heal themselves\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

His solo shows include <\/span>Mariposa Rel\u00e1mpago<\/span><\/i> at the ICA Boston, <\/span>Tierra Blanca Joven <\/span><\/i>at the Brooklyn Museum, and <\/span>Provocations <\/span><\/i>at the ICA Miami, as well as in group exhibitions at the MoMA, the Reina Sof\u00eda, the Whitney Museum, and the Tate Modern. He has also participated in several international biennials, including those in Lyon (2024), Gwangju (2023), Liverpool (2023), and S\u00e3o Paulo (2023). He was awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship (2019), the Joan Mitchell Fellowship (2021), and the LatinX Fellowship (2021). He is represented by the P.P.O.W. Gallery (New York) and the Mor charpentier gallery (Paris).<\/span><\/p>\n
