Antònia del Río (Majorca, 1983). Her projects focus on research into the mechanisms by which knowledge is transmitted and lost, establishing a constant dialogue between memory and oblivion. Through processes for the conservation of memory, she explores the construction of discourse, knowledge and thought.
In 2010, she received a grant for artistic production from the Suñol Foundation. This enabled her to create Xiu-xius en blanc, la biblioteca absent [Whispers in White, the Absent Library], which she presented at the Suñol Foundation's Nivell Zero exhibition space in 2011. Another outstanding work is Catedral [Cathedral], curated by Joana Hurtado, a project on the Chapel of Sant Roc (Valls). Antònia del Río has also shown her work at the Cap Vermell Centre in Cala Rajada (Majorca, 2010), at the Torre de Ses Puntes in Manacor (Majorca, 2010) and at the Casa de Cultura in Felanitx (Majorca, 2010).
The main collective exhibitions she has taken part in include Àmbits d'intrusió, at Can Felipa (Barcelona, 2012); Oficina 36: Exposició núm. 1, at The Private Space (Barcelona, 2011); Contextos Intermèdia, at Tecla Sala Art Centre (L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, 2010) and Estampa tentaciones (Madrid, 2009).
