Fernanda Brunet

Born in the State of Mexico in 1963, Fernanda Brunet studied Visual Arts at the National School of Painting, Sculpture and Engraving "La Esmeralda" (INBAL), before spending seven formative years in New York between 1994 and 2001. She lives and works in Mexico City.

For twenty-five years, Brunet has built a pictorial language shaped by comics, nature, the human body, and sexuality — stretching painting, graphics, yarn, and ceramics into presences that confront our own dimension. She paints large so you can feel as if you are inside the paintings: entire worlds built to be entered, not observed.

In 2026, Call Me Lola partnered with Saenger Galería to bring Brunet's work into Algo Más de Lola, our immersive installation during Mexico City Art Week. Her paintings — explosive, electric, ecstatic — became the visual core of an environment that wrapped around visitors, dissolving the boundary between artwork and body. It was the first time she saw her work built into a horizonless, immersive space, and she was moved: "I never imagined that it was going to be built... so I'm really happy that it is happening."
