Emilio Chapela studied Media and Communication at the Universidad Iberoamericana and a postgraduate degree in Art and Media at the University of Plymouth in the United Kingdom. His work explores the relationships between science, technology, and ecology, and their manifestations through time and space. He received a young creators grant from the Fondo Nacional para la Cultura y las Artes (abbreviated as FONCA in Spanish) of Mexico on two occasions, in 2005 and 2013. He has had more than 20 individual shows in Germany, Argentina, Canada, El Salvador, the United States, Mexico, and Venezuela. He has also participated in more than 30 group shows in Mexico and internationally.
Colección FEMSA has an image bank of the works that comprise it—a resource intended for researchers, publishers, and art institutions. The Collection is open to lending requests for shows in Mexico and other countries.
