Voluspa Jarpa
Rancagua, 1971
Since 1994, Voluspa Jarpa has maintained an extensive artistic production, participating in collective and individual exhibitions in Chile and abroad. Her work has explored vast research and artworks which explore the nature of the archive, the memory, and the cultural and symbolic notion of social trauma. This research has focused on the Cold War in Latin America through the commissioning and revision of intelligence documents on Latin America declassified by the USA in recent decades. The implication of secrecy as the modus operandi of politics, its effects in the psyche, as well as the exploration of ways to free us from those structures, are the main concerns of her recent works and research.
