Description: Visual artist, filmmaker social researcher. Carol Montealegre studied Anthropology at the Universidad de los Andes with an emphasis on Art. In her degree practice she inserted tools from Augusto Boal’s “Theater of the Oppressed” in two rural schools of the Colombian Caribbean where she worked with children ranging in age from 6 to 15 years old for a period of year. She received a Master's degree in Visual Arts from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, UNAM. While there, she wrote her thesis “The Permanency of the Ephemeral” an investigation into the experience of time / space from a philosophical and aesthetic approach, embodied in the human body as a support for the experience in performance art. Recently her research and practice intersect cinema and performance art with human rights advocacy. She works in the creation of experiences that allow the spectator and the performer to immerse themselves in other possible realities, for the sake of decolonization of the body, mind and soul. She is currently working on the project Howls in the Mountains with a women’s union in Colombia on alternative healing practices for post war trauma, creating video installations in Super 8 mm film and mixed media.
