Nora Adame

Visual artist

Nora Adame was born in Tampico, Tamaulipas in 1970, she studied Fine Arts at the University of the Americas in Puebla more as a hobby than as an interest in doing it as her lifestyle .

She is famous for creating paintings through a process of recycling waste cloth and labels from large industries to transform them into true pieces of art, amazing Pop Art Lovers.

Her passion is inspired by other artists and their way of projecting what they feel. Nora tries not only to represent a creative idea but to make the consumer think about the way in which we sometimes make judgments or put labels on people without really knowing who they are .

Her works have been selected for national and international awards , such as the XI Rufino Tamayo Biennale at the Museum in Mexico City in 2002, the VI National Meeting of Contemporary Art in the City of Puebla in 2006 , where she participated and won an award with two of her works, the VIII National Meeting of Contemporary Art in the City of Puebla in 2008 and at the Fourth Biennial of Visual Arts Yucatán in 2009 , where she participated.

Nora has been a conference speaker at several mexican universities like the Universidad Iberoamericana in Puebla and the Instituto de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey in Monterrey , NL, in 2002 and the Benemérita University of Puebla in 2007.
