ELISA RODRIGUEZ (Valladolid, 1988)
A constant regard to nature, the reappropriation of the public space and the search of the remote spectator are common concerns in her work. Following the idea of
the detail as a fundamental piece, her practice has led her to develop a deep interest in art as a tool for social change. Her latest movements revolve around art
education, working on the development of didactic content for the Museo Nacional de Escultura and the Museum of Contemporary Spanish Art Patio Herreriano (Valladolid,
Spain).
