At Artissima 2025, Voluspa Jarpa presents a diptych from her ongoing series Cartographies of the Syndemic, which revisits the waves of social uprisings that swept across Latin America between 2019 and 2023. The series combines territorial cartography, data sets, graphics, and archival materials to build a layered reading of contemporary conflicts, articulating perspectives on economic […]

This research focuses on the study, analysis, and symbolic construction of images around the social uprisings across […]
