Amor Muñoz (MX, 1979)
Residency period: July 2025
Invited to La Becque as part of a residency with Plateforme 10, Amor Muñoz has been working at the intersection of crafts and experimental electronics for over a decade—especially with electronic textiles. Her practice involves replacing hard circuits with soft ones, transforming the rigid language of engineering into a soft, tactile, and flexible mode of expression. This intersection of technology and craftsmanship has led her to develop various strands of research and practice, including explorations of labor and technodiversity, poetic approaches to code, and the relationship between bio-based crafts and technology.
Amor has held residencies at institutions such as the Bauhaus Dessau (Germany) and Google Arts & Culture. Her work has been exhibited in numerous museums, galleries, and festivals, including: 21 Haus–Belvedere (Austria); San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA, USA); MUAC (Mexico); Center for Heritage, Arts and Textiles (Hong Kong); The National Art Center (Tokyo, Japan); G Museum (Nanjing, China); Lentos Museum (Austria); Havana Biennial (Cuba); Museum of Contemporary Art (Belgrade, Serbia), among others.
