BIOGRAPHY OF CHELITA ZUCKERMANN 

Mexican and Italian architect and self-taught artist, born in Mexico City in 1965, graduated in Architecture in 1991. She worked in Mexico as an architect from 1991 to 2006 when she moved to live in Italy. Since her architectural studies are not recognized in Europe, in 2016 she began to creat artistic works by transforming aluminium, stainless steel and corten steel plates into sculptures. Since 2017, three of her sculptures are displayed in public places and are part of the Porto Rotondo's Art Foundation, Sardinia. Since 2019, two of her sculptures are part of the art collections of 2 museums, one in the PAPALOTE Museum in Mexico City and the other in the Museo Dei Lumi in Casale Monferrato, Italy. She has won 4 first Art prizes, In October 2020 at the Premio Biancoscuro Art Contest 2020, in 2019 at the 13th Premio Arte Laguna di Venezia, in the Business for Art category and 2 in Palm Springs, USA. Thanks to the polished stainless steel and aluminium she uses, her sculptures reflect natural and artificial light and blend into the environment, taking colors from their surroundings as a reflection. The lightness of aluminum allows her aluminium sculptures to move in the wind. With her works, Chelita wants to bring joy and light.
