Adriana Bustos
Adriana Bustos lives and works in Buenos Aires. She graduated from the School of Fine Arts and Psychology at University of Córdoba (AR). Bustos creates a narrative discourse through installation, video, photography and drawing, in which her reflections on prevailing social, political or religious oppression appear in non-linear interpretations of history. The investigative and documentary nature of her work challenges so-called historical facts by drawing from ideas taken up in areas of anthropology, science, popular culture, fiction, biographical writings and history itself, and juxtaposes them within representational systems.
