Tania Pérez Córdova (b. 1979, Mexico City, Mexico; lives in Mexico City) has developed a sculptural practice that often places found and discarded objects into tension with canonical materials such as metal, marble, ceramics, or glass. Incorporating performance, her works often hint at an intimate relationship with the body while simultaneously engaging with specific places and events—oscillating between abstract and conceptual compositions. Córdova’s 2017 exhibition at the MCA marked her first solo exhibition in the United States, followed by solo exhibitions at the Sculpture Center in New York and Museo Tamayo Arte Contemporáneo, Mexico City. Several works by Córdova are held in the MCA’s collection.
