Paz Ulloa is a visual artist and designer. She studied graphic design and
printmaking at the School of Fine Arts of the University of Costa Rica.
Throughout her artistic practice, she has developed the ability to integrate
the languages of domestic space and everyday rituals as fundamental tools
in her work. In her more recent pieces, her approach fosters a deep interaction
with space, where nature unfolds as an extended concept that goes beyond
mere visual representation. Her practice, conceived as a constantly evolving
system, becomes a vehicle for exploring existential dualities: the tension
between the organic and the industrial, the ephemeral and the eternal,
the fragile and the solid.
Eco a Eco is a resonator that emerged from Ulloa’s research on the speed
of light in a vacuum— a sort of representation of time and space, past
and future, all as an assumption, a causality. The artist adopted this concept
to explore sound and its implications: the echo. Ulloa is interested in this
assumption as a way to position herself at the axis that unites these dualities
in the present—a metaphor for being, a different way of existing that engages
the body and memory as occurrences of existence, the very materialization
of presence.
