Paulo Licona

He is a visual artist trained at Jorge Tadeo Lozano University and holds a Master’s Degree in Plastic and Visual Arts from the National University of Colombia. His work explores educational processes, punishment, and the notion of “misbehavior,” confronting the viewer through humor, irony, and mockery. Since 2000, he has exhibited regularly in Colombia and abroad, and has led self-managed projects such as El Mentidero, DELE POR AY, and PING-PONG. He has presented exhibitions in spaces such as SGR Galería (Bogotá), Centro Cultural Colombo Americano (Cali), oficina de proyectos (Cali), and the 44th National Artists’ Salon in Pereira. His work combines a playful aesthetic with biting criticism, turning everyday life into a terrain for reflection and social questioning.
