Trained in art at the universities of Santiago de Compostela and Vigo in Galicia, Spain, María Ruido (Xinzo de Limia, Ourense, 1967) teaches in the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Barcelona. A visual artist, researcher and cultural producer, since 1998, she has been developing interdisciplinary projects about the social construction of the body and identity, the labour system in post-Fordist capitalism and the construction of collective memory.
