Description
Mariana Bolaños is a Mexican sculptor based in Toronto. She has been working with ceramics for over four years and exhibits her work regularly. She has been part of several shows in Canada, Mexico and The United States. Focusing on art with a social purpose, she works as a facilitator in community programs with children, women and newcomers around Toronto and the GTA.
Her body of work engages with themes of migration, social justice and gender equality. She is inspired by nature and nature’s cycles of life and death as symbols of resilience; here, Mariana is able to convey the stories of where she comes from and who she is as a woman and as an immigrant. Her experience with ceramics began in Mexico extracting clay directly from nature. Drawing on these memories has made the language of the raw material important in her work.
