Mauro Busser is a Colombian visual artist with over 15 years of experience in the arts. He has developed more than 12 projects throughout his career, creating a substantial body of work. He has participated in national and international group exhibitions at art fairs, galleries, and museums (his work is known in more than 15 countries). In 2011, he graduated from the Advertising and Marketing program at the Politécnico Grancolombiano. In 2008, he completed a creative residency in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and pursued independent studies at the Rector Ricardo Rojas Cultural Center (University of Buenos Aires). In 2007, in São Paulo, Brazil, he studied figurative art and red clay modeling with the Armando Álvarez Penteado Foundation (FAAP). He was born in Bogotá, Colombia, on March 13, 1983.

He has worked with a variety of materials, both traditional and non-traditional, using diverse mediums such as drawing, painting, embossing, digital drawing, modeling, mini-assemblages, video, and photography. Without neglecting tangible materials and the expressiveness of their characteristics, he is interested in what we call error, fusing mixed media techniques. His themes revolve around human conditions of the past and present, given the circumstances we face today. He is troubled by what afflicts humanity, as well as what makes it interesting and unique, expanding his consciousness throughout the process. He observes opposing concepts in the imaginary of meaning and signifier from a visual perspective—sometimes constructivist, sometimes concrete, sometimes minimalist-pop—reinterpreting them through color. He resorts to techniques that were once avant-garde, reviving "exhausted" powers that he believes require a new presence and perspective. From something neo-primitive to new, sophisticated tools.
