Camila Damico Medina (she/they) is interested in the non-productive body– as leisure, rapture, and idleness may be employed in artistic practices to bring forward decolonial ways of being. With a broad specialty in Latin American modern/contemporary art history, her research focuses on the entanglements between art and technology, embodiment discourses, international constructivism, and spectatorship. Prior resuming my doctoral studies, they earned their MA in Communication Technologies and Aesthetics and took professional training in time-based media art preservation. They also held appointments coordinating photography projects and interactive audiovisual documentaries and producing film festivals in Brazil. As a Teaching Assistant at Tyler School of Art and Architecture, she currently assists in the course Art Matters: Ideas in Art and Architecture offered to the undergraduate level.
