Verónica Posada (Bogotá, Colombia) is a Colombian artist who lives and works in Bogotá. Her practice is primarily rooted in drawing, with an emphasis on charcoal, pastel, and graphite, through which she explores portraiture and the construction of identity.
By focusing on the external elements that shape the context surrounding an individual, Posada approaches portraiture without directly depicting the subject. The objects and traces that accompany, surround, and reveal aspects of a person emerge in her work as reflections of history, desire, memory, and experience—a network of signs that invites viewers to imagine their life and way of being in the world.
