Profile
Chris Luza is a visual artist and cultural mediator based in Perú. Chris holds a bachelor’s degree in Printmaking, and in her work, she investigates how fantastic horror narratives and historical truths have bounded our senses of well-being to colonial hierarchies. In this sense, Chris’s work seeks to sabotage those patriarchal and eurocentric epistemologies while simultaneously empowering inherited emancipatory knowledge that survives the colonial order. Her work spans various visual mediums, such as video installations, performances, and drawings. Chris is committed to transfeminism and anti-racist activism and has been involved in different pedagogical experiences, both in academia and in independent feminist and art organizations from the Global South, such as Bisagra, CLACSO, GLEFAS and Colectivo Ayllu.
