Visual artist. She works with food and other living materials to investigate culture, identity and ecology.
Nicole Vindel (Guatemala, 1992) is a visual artist based in Barcelona. Her practice operates at the intersection of sculpture, performance and installation. Through food, living materials like light, plants, water and soil, and everyday objects, she investigates how the designed world shapes human behavior, desire and perception. Her framework is what she calls critical hope, exploring culture, identity and ecology, and questioning our place in the world. She teaches and researches food design and food systems at Elisava.
