​​

Manuela Corji (Medellin, 2000) is an artist who lives and works in

the Dominican Republic. Her practice centers on figurative painting,

exploring everyday life through compositions charged with irony, humor,

and distortion. Her works depict scenes in which celebration, intimacy,

and social rituals take on an ambiguous quality, oscillating between the

comic and the unsettling. Through a deliberately exaggerated aesthetic,

Corji constructs images in which the familiar becomes strange and the

everyday reveals itself as deeply performative.
