STATEMENT

Alejandra Caicedo (born 1996) is an Afro-Latin American artist focused on painting, sculpture, and urban art. Born in Cali, Colombia, she studied Fine Arts at Universidad del Valle before moving to Germany, where she completed her degree at the Hochschule für bildende Künste Hamburg under Anselm Reyle. Since 5 years she lives and works in Hamburg.
Her work explores themes of migration, memory, and identity. Alongside her paintings, she develops sculptures and installations that extend the canvas into three dimensions, creating immersive environments. Her latest series Problems in Paradise examines the emotional complexities of exile, shaping pastel-toned realities where pain, cultural heritage, and self-assertion collide. As a rising voice in Latin American street art, she blends tenderness with confrontation  intense, vibrant, and deeply personal.
