Mario Guillén

b. 1994, Mérida, Mexico. 

Mario Guillén Ordóñez’s projects develop within the disciplines of drawing
and painting, exploring the idea of a generational identity
built through the content we are exposed to throughout
our lives, particularly during early development.
His work belongs to the figurative genre and often
appropriates and incorporates elements of visual culture
to generate a personal narrative.
He has participated in four solo exhibitions and several
group shows.


He has received various distinctions, such as being a
recipient of the Contigo en la Distancia program in
2020 and the FONCA Young Creators grant in 2022.

and holds a degree in Visual Arts from the School of Arts
