Dennis Miranda Zamorano Mexico, b. 1993

Dennis Miranda Zamorano (b.1993) lives and works in Mexico City, Mexico.

A self-taught artist, the themes, subjects, and composition of Zamorano’s work and approach find their origins in El Tianguis, an open-air Mexican market tradition that his family has participated in for generations. For Zamorano, the dynamism and ephemerality of the marketplace, with its encounters, disputes, in addition to the economy of objects, aesthetics, and desires, are analogous to the act of constructing a painting.

His recent exhibitions include: Abstraction (re)creation, Consortium Museum (Dijon, FR 2024); Falling Upwards, Galerie Marguo (Paris, FR 2023); Ongoing portraits Chapter I, Galleria Furiosa (Mexico City, MX, 2021) and Ongoing portraits Chapter II, IMAGINE GALLERY (San Miguel de Allende, MX 2021); Los Relatos del Rostro, AppArt (Paris, 2018); LANDSCAPE, The Tiny Box Project (San Miguel de Allende, MX, 2017); For Here or to Go, WNDO space (Los Angeles, CA, 2017); El Límite de la Risa, IMAGINE GALLERY (San Miguel de Allende, MX 2016); and My American Experience, WNDO Space (Los Angeles, CA 2014). 

Miranda Zamorano is a member of the artist collective Colectivo ABSURDAS (Mexico City, MX) and co-founder of the Librería Informal, a contemporary art library in the Tianguis LAGUNILLA. In 2019 he was awarded a residency at Art House Holland (Leiden, NE) and 2018 he was an artist-in-residence at Zona-Seis, Galeria Luis Adelantado (Mexico City, MX).
