Biography

Lucía King’s practice in film, video, and drawing has operated between India and the UK for the last twelve years. She has also lived long term in the Netherlands and Spain (1990-2000) following an artist-in-residency at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten (Amsterdam). Whilst living in India, her work spanned activist filmmaking and performance projects as well as film production design, culminating in a PhD research of artists-film and documentary from India that has informed her work as a curator in this field. These relocations have led to questioning the wider politics of cross-cultural collaboration as an integral aspect of her practice, developing new theoretical models and imagined futures of art production and exhibition. Founding VisionMix in 2014—a cross-regional network of artist-filmmakers, photographers, and curators—has fostered a collective exploration of ideological spaces of video and new media art in the public realm.
