Artist, Graphic Designer and Researcher
(ES, CL~1997)
Barcelona based.  

Andrea Galano Toro is a Chilean artist and graphic designer based in Barcelona. Her transdisciplinary practice explores storytelling as a gesture to activate and enchant transformational experiences through installations, audiovisual performances, workshops, and publications. Her work engages ecological narratives focused on processes of decay and multispecies relationships, approached through a critical lens that questions extractivist logics.

Her practice unfolds through scale, language, and experimental storytelling — approaching the micro to +think the macro — and reappropriating tools designed 
to measure or classify the world, such as microscopes, macro lenses, and bestiaries, as instruments of speculation, intuition, and connection with the more-than-human. Andrea works with electronics in connection to natural materials through installations that transform and decompose over time, exploring technology itself in relation to decay and its own mortality. Language is 
also central: from collective glossaries to speculative symbols and cartographies as ways of imagining other worlds and relations.

§ymBi𑃰c3nՓ Memoria (2024)


The project originates from the creation of a speculative fable that imagines what future ecosystems might be like, expanding and reformulating the notion of the neofossil. This speculative scenario is then given the name §ymBi𑃰c3nՓ: a new geological era in which Earth has become a testament to the resilience and adaptability of nature, governed by mutualism and synergy.

Documentation of process, technology, diagrams and research begind the project.
Design in collaboration with Rocio Gomez.
