| Bio | Interdisciplinary artist and mentor blending conceptual art, performance, and care work, offering guidance on creative strategy, career development, finance management, and values-driven sustainability. SHORT BIO: Dulce Lamarca is an Argentinian-born interdisciplinary artist, educator, and mentor working at the intersection of performance, video, and socially engaged art. Based between Buenos Aires and New York, Lamarca has 9 years of experience supporting artists and cultural institutions through creative, administrative, and financial leadership. She currently serves as Finance Manager to Marilyn Minter Studio and has previously worked with artists such as Pablo Helguera and Mark Tribe as studio manager, as well as institutions including Performa, El Museo del Barrio, and The Dalton School in New York. Her work; deeply informed by her background in hospice care, education, and violoncello; explores time, transience, and interconnectedness. She holds an MFA from the School of Visual Arts, New York, and a BFA, major in painting and arts education from Regina Espacio de Arte, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Lamarca offers mentorships for emerging and mid-career artists that integrates conceptual rigor with practical guidance, grounded in care and long-term sustainability. LONG BIO: Dulce Lamarca is an Argentinian-born interdisciplinary artist and educator currently living and working between Buenos Aires and New York. Through a multidisciplinary, conceptual, project-based approach, her work explores different ways of perceiving time and evokes a sense of introspection about how we live our lives. Lamarca’s background as a cellist and her years working with terminally ill patients have deeply informed her interest in time as both subject and material. Her practice reflects on personal leitmotifs and memories, encapsulating themes of transience, longing, and belonging. Mainly through video installations and participatory performances, Dulce playfully unfolds these themes, using humor and technology as tools and participation as a foundation for her practice. Her current work is rooted in the interplay between material consumption and our relationship with the environment. It addresses the consequences of urban living, overconsumption, and environmental degradation, while reflecting on our interconnectedness with other species and among ourselves. Dulce holds a BFA with orientation in Painting and Arts Education from Regina Espacio de Arte (Buenos Aires, Argentina), and an MFA in Fine Arts from the School of Visual Arts (New York, NY). In addition to her formal academic background, Lamarca has pursued a range of specialized trainings that inform the depth and breadth of her interdisciplinary practice. In 2024, she completed the Full Spectrum Community Doula Training with Ancient Song in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. She has studied Improv Comedy at Magnet Theater with Rick Andrews, and Art Therapy as a Career with Jennifer Tedesco at the School of Visual Arts in New York. Her photographic exploration of identity was deepened through The Investigation of Self and the Human Condition, a course led by Jen Davis at ICP, the International Center of Photography in New York. She studied cello with Carolina Garbero, Alicia Alberti, and with André Mouroux at the Conservatorio Juan José Castro in Buenos Aires, analog and digital photography with Sofia Bensadon, Francisco Provedo, and Diego Ortiz Mügica at his photography school. She completed a one-year course on Hospice and Palliative Care organized by UCA University of Argentina, the Bioethics Institute at the University of Buenos Aires Medical School, and Hospice San Camilo. She volunteered for over three years at the hospice, accompanying patients with a terminally ill disease through the end of their lives. She currently works as a volunteer with Fundación Sí in Buenos Aires, participating in Recorridas Nocturnas, a nightly outreach program that offers companionship, food, and support to people living on the streets. Lamarca’s work has been exhibited both nationally and internationally in Argentina, New Zealand, Italy, Germany, Sweden, South Africa, China, Mexico, Panama, Puerto Rico and the United States. She has shown in venues such as Five Myles (Brooklyn, NY), Tramo (Panama City, Panama), A.I.R. Gallery (Brooklyn, NY), Spring Break Art Show (New York, NY), Doral Contemporary Art Museum (Miami, FL), Proyecto Casa Intervenida (Buenos Aires, Argentina), Latin American Theater Experiment & Associates, (New York, NY), Centro Cultural Borges (Buenos Aires, Argentina), Blue Oyster Art Project Space (Dunedin, New Zealand), Museo del Desierto (Saltillo, Mexico), Luxun Academy of Fine Art and Lankai Gallery (Anshan, China), among others.
