Carolina Caycedo (born 1978, London, United Kingdom) is a multimedia artist based in Los Angeles.

Born to Colombian parents, Caycedo's art practice is based on environmental research focusing on the future of shared resources, environmental justice, energy transition and cultural biodiversity. Through contributing to community-based construction of environmental and historical memory, Caycedo seeks the ways of preventing violence against humans and nature.

Her work has been shown in museums around the world, including in a number of international biennales, such as the 2019 Chicago Architecture Biennial, 2018 Hammer Museum “Made in L.A.” biennial, 2016 São Paulo Art Biennial, 2010 Pontevedra Biennial, 2009 Havana Biennial, 2009 San Juan Poligraphic Triennial, 2006 Whitney Biennial, and 2003 Venice Biennale.

Education

Caycedo received a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) from the University of Southern California in 2012, and a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) from the University of Los Andes in Bogotá, Colombia in 1999.

Selected awards

Caycedo was awarded the “Fine Initiative” from the Vincent Price Art Museum, in Monterey Park, California, and The Huntington Library, in San Marino, California, United States. This award focuses on the expansion of Huntington Library's art collections, with the aim that awarded artists create new works around the theme of identity. Caycedo also won the 2015 Creative Capital Visual Arts Award.

To Drive Away Whiteness/Para alejar la blancura

To Drive Away Whiteness/Para alejar la blancura (2017) was a multi-media sculpture shown at Hammer Museum, Los Angeles as a part of 2018 “Made in L.A.” biennial.

Be Dammed

Caycedo's project Be Dammed (since 2012) is a body of video, artist book, and installation works that focus on Colombian communities residing around the Magdalena River in Colombia that are being affected by extractivist industries such as the construction of dams and the privatization of the river.

By 2014, 200,000 Colombian residents had been displaced under of the resource extraction projects along with the river, and privatization of the land, and Caycedo has been researched on the aftermath of the relocation to create this artwork. In 2019, she showed a performance piece, Beyond Control at the Museo de Arte Moderno de Medellín, Colombia. The performance, choreographed in collaboration with Rebeca Hernandez, sought to visualize the relations between dams and how humans manage bodies of water.

How to obtain a British passport

How to obtain a British passport (2003) is a video work based on the both real and fiction-based acting of Caycedo and her Colombian friend, performing a civil marriage ceremony.

Daytoday

Daytoday (2002–09) was Caycedo's individual project, in which she stayed metropolitan cities such as New York, London, and Vienna without having any money or no essential goods. She lived day-to-day by offering people basic skills, such as haircuts or Spanish lessons, as an exchange for food or a place to stay for a night.

Apariciones/Apparitions

Apariciones/Apparitions is a video work that debuted at The Huntington Library as part of the institution's contemporary arts initiative called "/five." The nine-and-a-half-minute video features ghost-like dancers inhabiting The Huntington's collection.

The Collapse of a Model

The Collapse of a Model consists of two massive photomontages made of composite satellite imagery of three major dam sites. The piece suggests a hopeful not toward the end of the capitalist model of resource extraction.
