Bio

Dunia Barrera (b. Madrid, 1979) is a visual artist living and working in Munich, Germany. She came to her practice from a background in analog photography, first shown in a solo exhibition at PHotoESPAÑA in 2002.

Her work has since been exhibited at the Carriage Barn Arts Center and Silvermine Galleries — both in New Canaan, CT, USA — and at the Industrie Museum in Gent, Belgium, among others. It has been featured by Contemporary Collage Magazine and in the publications of the Fragmented Collective and Kolaj Magazine’s Artist Trading Cards. She is a member of the Silvermine Guild of Artists and the Berufsverband Bildender Künstlerinnen und Künstler München Oberbayern e.V., and was named a Highly Commended artist at the Homiens Art Prize in Summer 2024 and Spring 2025.

Her work is held in the collections of the Anthropology Museum of Madrid, the Madrid Metro, the Museum Cristóbal Gabarrón in Valladolid, and private collections.

Statement

My work examines womanhood, self-worth, desire, aging, and the influence of media. I'm drawn to how everyday objects can hold the layered complexity of personal experience — and I let each piece take the form that best serves its idea, whether repurposed objects, paper, textiles, wood, ceramics, or beads, so the medium itself becomes part of the story.
