b. 1994, Mexico City
Paniagua's work unfolds as an accumulation of layers of time,
made evident by her creative process of constant
making and remaking, allowing the material aspect of
painting to leave its mark on the canvas. This visual
representation of presence and absence mirrors the
human act of making mistakes, embodying the potential
for change and transformation.
Mariana’s artistic trajectory has earned her recognition
twice through the Young Creators program sponsored
by FONCA, in its 2016-2017 and 2018-2019 generations.
A graduate of Visual Arts from UNAM’s Faculty of Arts
and Design, she expanded her creative knowledge
with a Diploma in Editing from the same institution.
Her professional experience includes serving as a juror
at the Julio Castillo National Painting Biennial in 2018
and facilitating a children’s painting workshop at the
Siqueiros Public Art Room, INBA. These experiences
enable her to embrace both ends of the artistic
spectrum and bridge the gap between
youthful imagination and mature expression.
