VICTORIA PALACIOS

Biography

Victoria Palacios, born in 1992 in Rennes, France, now lives and works in Brussels. She studied at the School of Graphic Research in Brussels, 2019. Palacios is a multidisciplinary artist, weaving narratives between her different media. Like an orchestra conductor, she engages in the interrelation of images and works with language and writing. The ghostly and theatrical stories she makes her own are deployed in pictorial, performative, sculptural and sonic forms. She’s the half of rising duo Alto Fuero (Stroom Label) with Loto Retina. Her solo and two-person exhibitions include: Snails don’t drool. They spit at Galerie Derouillon, Paris, 2024; L’odeur de la boue at Pizza Gallery, Antwerp, 2024; L’éloquente triple flûte, with Victor Delestre at Placement Produit, Aubervilliers, 2023; Kalon Glaz at Panamax, Liège, 2022; Stars of Bethlehem, Beech, Gorse at SISSI Club, Marseille, 2022; and L’Araignée at Brasseries Atlas, Brussels, 2021. Recent group exhibitions include: A Small Land of Watery Light, Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai, 2024 (forthcoming); you crack me up!, Wouters Gallery, Brussels, 2024; La flemme ~ joy of missing out at Image/Imatge, Orthez, 2023; HOT GIRLS: She’s A Keeper, He’s A Catch at Red Herring Salon, Antwerp, 2023; Symbiosium at Fondation Fiminco x Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles, Paris, 2023; Fables Paniques at Ada Ventura, Brussels, 2023; Zindering at Emergent, Veurnes, 2023; and Silver Screen at Galerie Harkawik, Los Angeles, 2022.
