Joining together an extensive palette of vibrant and often playfully patterned fabrics to construct bodily forms, Maria A. Guzmán Capron’s practice explores cultural hybridity, a non-binary sense of self, and the competing desires to assimilate and to be seen. Born in Milan, Italy to Colombian and Peruvian parents and later relocating to Texas as a teenager, the artist recognizes the challenges of toggling between various cultures and geographies. The artist’s multilayered textile works offer a physical manifestation of the polyvalent influences that shape us, emphasizing that we consist of several identities—some that we repress and some that we exalt.

Composed with a variety of recycled, off-cut, and store-bought fabrics, Capron’s works merge privileged textiles with those that have been rejected and discarded as excess. By contrasting common fibers like cotton with more luxurious fabrics like silk, the artist addresses material hierarchies in art and fashion to parallel the power dynamics that exist within class and gender.

Maria A. Guzmán Capron received her MFA from California College of the Arts in 2015 and her BFA from the University of Houston in 2004. Select solo exhibitions include San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, San Francisco, CA; UB Center for the Arts in Buffalo, NY; the Blaffer Art Museum, Houston, TX; Shulamit Nazarian, Los Angeles, CA; Texas State Galleries, San Marcos, TX and Guerrero Gallery, San Francisco, CA.

As a 2022 recipient of SFMOMA’s SECA Award, her exhibition Respira Hondo was presented at SFMOMA through May 2023.
