Oxiea Villamonte lives and works in Amsterdam. She graduated with her master’s in photography from The Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp in September 2020.
Her work starts from her own personal archive as a way to remember, discover and give the archive a new life.
In November 2020 she published her first book ‘Next of Kin’, together with Stockmans Art Books. ‘Next of Kin’ combines archive images of her mother together with her own photographs. It is an intertwining story where the past and the present try to connect with each other as well as disconnect.
