Santiago Forero

Born in Bogotá, Colombia
Lives and works in Bogotá

As an artist, I work with familiar media images in order to reflect on how society molds beliefs and ideas about itself and different cultures. In my research I explore how this phenomenon generates superficial judgments about the “other”.
