Biography
Klamca is the alter ego of the artist, designer, photographer, architect, and mother Elena González Torres (Barcelona, 1976). She currently combines her activity as a visual artist with still photography for film and television, teaching, and collaborations as a writer and photographer for various media outlets. Under the pseudonym Klamca, she works with post-photography and video with a strong dimension of denunciation and social critique. Through the digital manipulation of appropriated images, she creates a singular universe inhabited by this histrionic alter ego. In recent years, she has taken part in various initiatives, residencies, exhibitions, and artistic actions. In 2022, the project Borradas, historia de la fotografía was presented in Barakaldo at the BAFFEST festival, and at the end of that same year, the Central Library of Santander hosted the largest exhibition dedicated to the project to date thanks to the curatorial programme of the Government of Cantabria. In 2021, it was exhibited in the Espacios de Igualdad network of Madrid City Council. During that same year, she also took part in the Redes Vivas residencies.
