French, b. 1971 — Myriam Zini visual artist based in Montevideo – Uruguay since 2016, where she is part of the FAC/Fundación de Arte Contemporáneo Collective.  Her work is based on the images and objects produced by mass culture. By painting on newspapers, by erasing figures and faces, by rescuing some empty billboards, the artist is subverting some of the ways the images are disseminated and driving us us to re-consider and to generate reflection on our contemporary world. Her intensely chromatic uneven paintings are mostly inspired by real life and often extreme situations of human experience. She works also with drawings, photography and installations. Zini's work has been exhibited in Brazil, Uruguay and USA.
