Maria Ruido is an artist, filmmaker and researcher who has been working on interdisciplinary media projects since 1998. Along her work she has developed a investigation on the imaginaries of labour in postfordits capitalism, as well as on the mechanisms that construct the memory and its relations to the different historical narratives, and currently, on decolonial imaginary and its emancipatory possibilities.

She lives between Madrid and Barcelona, where is a teacher at the Visual Culture Department at the University of Barcelona, and where she is implicated in several studies questioning the representation and the contexts were it´s being produced.
