Lives and works in Oslo

Alejandra Aguilar Caballero is a Mexican visual artist currently based in Oslo, Norway.

Alejandra holds a Bachelor degree in Visual Arts from UNAM (Mexico, 2010-2014) and a Master degree in Medium and Material Based Art from Kunsthøgskolen i Oslo (Norway, 2019-2021). She has been awarded the International Postgraduate Studies Scholarship FONCA-CONACYT (Mexico, 2019), Norske Grafikeres Fond (Norway, 2022), Grafillstipend (Norway, 2022), and Ettårig Stipend Billedkunstnernes Vederlagsfond (BKV, Norway 2023).
