Descripción del Artista
Miguel Sbastida (Spain, 1989) is a transdisciplinary visual artist working across installation, situated performance and video, in an investigation around the intersections of cultural ecologies, geologic phenomena and climate breakdown. His projects are a highly conceptual and aesthetic research built from a synergy of influences ranging from the post-humanities, to the natural sciences, environmental activism and post-colonial studies.
Sbastida graduated from a Master of Fine Arts in Studio Practice at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (2015-17), with the support of a scholarship from La Caixa Foundation; where he was nominated for the Dedalus Foundation awards in Sculpture. He completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts at Universidad Complutense of Madrid (2007-12) after his fellow BFA studies in Holland (2011) and Canada (2012).
His practice has been awarded with several prizes and grants, including the Asia Culture Center Korea ACC Residency Grant, Emerging Illinois Artists, Circuitos de Artes Plásticas, Madrid Art Production Funds, Oneminutes Film Festival Art Amsterdam, BilbaoArte Foundation grant, 3Piedras Foundation grant, or the School of the Art Institute of Chicago Professional Development Award; among others.
Sbastida has spoken in symposiums like Climate-Truth-Now Chicago (2017), Sostenibilidad (o no tanta) en la Creación Artística y Sus Instituciones (2021) and directed the seminar Ethics for Making in the Anthropocene (2018). During the last few years, his works have been exhibited internationally at venues like the Zhou B Art Center Chicago, ARCO Madrid, Korea Foundation Gallery Seoul, Expo Chicago, CDAN Museum, Museo Centre del Carme, Es Baluard, Boghossian Foundation, Hyde Park Art Center Chicago, CEART, Chicago Sullivan Galleries, Asia Culture Center Gwangju, Laboral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial, BilbaoArte Foundation, and the Netherlands Institute for Media Art; among others.
His performance and book Walk Like a Glacier (2016/17) has been featured in Antennae-The Journal for Nature in Visual Culture, and has been widely acquired by institutions in the United States; including the Joan Flasch Artist’s Book Collection, Yale University Haas Collection, Harvard University Special Collection, UCSD Geisel Library Collection, and the Museum of Modern Art Franklin Furnace Artists’ book collection.
