Irma Marco is an artist, researcher, and teacher. She holds a master's degree in Fine Arts from the UPV, is currently pursuing her doctorate at the University of Barcelona, and is a resident at the Fàbrica de Creació Fabra i Coats (Barcelona). She is also a consulting lecturer at the UOC and teaches at institutions such as MACBA and Escola Massana.
Marco works from pre-existing elements (such as sounds, images, discourses, or particular contexts), looking for new meanings and contents within materials that already have a past and a presence. She is interested in the plurality with which events are narrated and recorded, and she relies on noise, appropriation, collaboration, and exchange as strategies to open up a space of possibility from which to create meaning. Her practice encompasses sound experimentation, installation, actions, and interventions in physical spaces as well as virtual environments and publications.
Marco has exhibited and intervened in the Centro de Desarrollo de las Artes Visuales (Havana), Museo de Arte Moderno de Santo Domingo, INJUVE, Matadero, CA2M, Fundación Telefónica, Galería Blanca Soto (Madrid), CCCC Centre del Carme, Espai Tactel (Valencia), Bòlit Centre d'Art Contemporani (Girona), MAC (Mataró), MACBA, Espai Souvenir, SWAB Art Fair, Tangent Projects, Influencers-CCCB, Festival Sónar, Cinema Zumzeig, Arts Santa Mónica, and Primavera Pro (Barcelona), among others.
