Inés Cámara Leret


Inés Cámara Leret holds a BA in Fine Arts from the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (2008–2013) and the Akademie výtvarných umění v Praze (2012–2013), and an MA from the University of the Arts London (2015). Her practice is driven by the idea of interweaving: bringing diverse elements into relation and observing what remains and what falls away. She is interested in thinking about landscape through the echoes, details, and anecdotes that compose it, paying special attention to inherited myths. Her work proposes a form of collaboration with what once was—without the need to reconstruct it—and an active listening to what persists, in a constant balancing act.

She develops long-term, slow, and at times fragile research processes that require sustained engagement over time. In these, she is accompanied by different inhabitants, both human and more-than-human. These processes often take shape as installations in which writing, moving image, and sculptural approaches play a central role. In some cases, a ruin becomes a guide; in others, figures such as a butterfly or La Milenaria appear, accompanying and orienting the research.

She has undertaken residencies at institutions such as Las Cigarreras (Alicante), Tabakalera (San Sebastián–Donostia), Centro de Residencias Artísticas Matadero (Madrid), and the Real Academia de España en Roma. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally in public spaces (squares and natural environments), as well as in galleries, museums, and festivals.
