Ale de la Puente (Mexico, 1968) is a self-taught artist with studies in industrial design, goldsmithing, boatbuilding and navigation. Her art practice explores notions of time-space through a construction of poetic relations based on experience and knowledge, combining conceptualism and multimedia supports, technology and science.
Her diverse background and interests in time and space concepts have led her to collaborate with scientists in different fields from hypnotism, astronomy, nuclear physics to meteorology and mathematics. She has collaborated with institutions such as the Biotechnology Institute of UAEM (Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos), the National Institute of Astronomy and the National Institute of Nuclear Science (UNAM Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México). She has received an Honorary Mention Collide@CERN 2013, and is a member of the National System of Arts Creators (Sistema Nacional de Creadores, FONCA). She has exhibited her work nationally and internationally.
