Biography
Lives and works in Mexico City.

Adrián White's work is a collection of encounters between ideas, materials and emotions. His drawings and sculptures respond to the notion of landscape in relation to the body, the gaze and silence. Putting the experience in tension with the image, his work always frames the notion of the trace as a poetic recurring theme to find other paradoxical ways of inhabiting and dialoguing with the world.

Adrián White graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design (Georgia) and the Diploma in Visual Arts Production (Centro de las Artes de San Agustín Etla, Oaxaca). He has had solo and group exhibitions in Mexico, the United States, Australia, India, Peru, Estonia and Italy; among which stand out: Capa delgada (in collaboration with Emanuela Ascari, curated by Nina Fiocco, Instituto de Cultura Italiano, Mexico City, 2024), FLASH: focus on contemporary art in Puebla (curated by Nina Fiocco, Museo Amparo, Puebla, 2023), Topografía del rastro (curated by Michel Blancsubé, Córdoba Lab, 2022), C5 (Cultural Center of Spain in Mexico, 2022), Entre perro y lobo (curated by Michel Blancsubé, Mexico City, 2021-2022), Habitar los bordes (curated by Luis Felipe Ortega, Mexico City, 2021), Edge to Edge 2 (Venice Institute of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, CA, 2019), Please don't discipline your hands (in collaboration with Sebastián Hidalgo, ARTBASE, Puebla 2019) and Tales Of Duende: The Black Drop (in collaboration with E.
