Conceptual Artist

Houston

Violette Bule is a Venezuelan-born conceptual artist whose work merges archival research with community participation. After studying photography in Mexico City, she earned her MFA in Studio Art from the University of Houston. Using documentary techniques and participatory fieldwork, she explores the dynamics of power and collective memory. Her recent exhibitions include *La Bienal Poli/Gráfica de Puerto Rico y el Caribe: Bajo Presión* (San Juan, 2024), *Day Jobs* (Stanford Cantor Arts Center & Blanton Museum, 2023–24), *Echo Chamber* (Transart Foundation, 2020), and *Round 57: Southern Survey Biennial II* (Houston, 2024). She received the 2023 Horton/Artadia Award and was supported by Houston’s Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs. She has held residencies at Cornell University (2022) and the Visual Art Center at UT Austin (2024), following fellowships with Soma Summer (2014), Tokyo Art Space (2012–13), and ArtPace International Residency (2026). Her monograph *De la Lleca al Cohue—born from prison workshops (2010–12)* was named July 2024 Book of the Month by the Henri Cartier-Bresson Foundation.
