Bio

Catalina is a PhD candidate in the Department of Art History and the Center for Latin American Visual Studies (CLAVIS) at UT Austin. Her research is centered around experimental film, video, and performance in Argentina and Brazil during the latter half of the 20th century. She focuses specifically on transregional artistic networks, systems of circulation, and phenomenological shifts that occurred under authoritarianism. Her dissertation follows two women-led artist groups working with compact film and video formats to explore how they reclaimed and reconceptualized space through the filmic screen.
