Maximiliano Tineo, b. in 1988 in Rosario, Argentina, based in Paris, France.

As visual artist , he has long explored the concepts of uprooting, belonging, and the idea of home; nowadays is developing works that rotate around issues related to extractivism and colonialism.

Although his work is consolidated through photography and editorial publishing, it also embraces other forms of expression, such as video, sound installation, and, more recently, sculpture.
