María Fernanda Cardoso

María Fernanda Cardoso is a Colombian-born, Australia-based artist known for her provocative and conceptually rich works that explore nature, biology, and the boundaries between life and death. Her practice spans sculpture, installation, video, and performance, often incorporating organic materials such as dried flowers, insects, and animal specimens to examine ecological and philosophical themes. She gained international recognition for projects like the Cardoso Flea Circus, a conceptual performance piece that blurred the lines between art, science, and spectacle.
