Cristina Ochoa Art

ristina Ochoa is a Colombian artist, resident in Mexico since 2011. She studied architecture and visual arts at Universidad Javeriana and Universidad Nacional de Colombia, and was part of the first generation of SOMA’s educational program in Mexico City.

With a trajectory of more than two decades of constant production, she has exhibited in international institutions, museums, galleries, cultural centers, and self-managed spaces — from the Salón Nacional de Artistas in Colombia (2010) to Museo Jumex, Sfer Ik Tulum, P///akt Foundation Amsterdam, and the Millennium Seed Bank at Kew Gardens, UK (2025).

Her research practice has developed around desire, consumption, and value in contemporary society through an ecofeminist lens — studying traditional knowledge, memory, and time.

For several years she has developed the project Pharmakon — an investigation into pharmacy and traditional herbal medicine centered on ethnobotany and ancestral knowledge.
