Florencia Rothschild

Florencia Rothschild was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and currently lives in Coatepec, Mexico. She holds a degree in Visual Arts with a focus on Fine Arts and Ceramic Technique from the National University of the Arts (UNA–Argentina), and a Master's degree in Education for Interculturality and Sustainability from the Universidad Veracruzana.

For over twenty years, she has taught visual arts and currently leads the ceramics studio at La Ceiba Gráfica. She has exhibited both solo and collectively in Argentina, Mexico, and the United States. In 2025, she was selected for a public project at Salon Acme, curated by Rafael Toriz — a recognition that highlights the contemporary strength and poetic depth of her work.

Her practice revolves around existential themes linked to the human experience, the body, and its (de)construction. Through fragmented and contorted forms that evolve into new possible bodies, she challenges notions of individuality and subjectivity, favoring a more fluid and collective vision of identity. She integrates architectural elements into her work, reinterpreting them freely to establish a dialogue between structure and organicity. Material — especially ceramics — holds a central place in her research, approached as a sensorial, sensitive, intellectual, and symbolic medium, giving shape to a body of work that is both embodied and poetic.
