Rafael Gomez Barros is a Colombian contemporary artist born in 1972. His work interrogates the violence and social divisions that have shaped Colombian history. His art addresses the complex spaces between the individual and society, desire and reality, identity and anonymity. Using repetition and altered forms, she creates images of the fluid nature of mental space and how past experiences distort images. However, these works are embodied not only in mental but also in real spaces, sometimes appropriating these spaces and questioning binary categories. Gomez Barros studied Fine Arts at the Jorge Tadeo Lozano University in Bogotá and has exhibited in important galleries such as La Cometa.
