Eva Salazar is a process-based performer and musician based in Mexico City. They hold a BFA double degree in Material Studies and Art History from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and has a background in classical violin, jazz vocals, and free improvisation, as well as experimental voicework through the RoyHart technique, Butoh and intuitive dance. She is a part of two experimental music ensembles: Larinx, an extended voicework trio, and CocheBomba a free-improv duo focussed predominantly on improvisational music for intuitive dance. She is the Co-founder and Curator of the Center for Art and Thought (Centro de Arte y Pensamiento) in CDMX.

Salazar’s work combines the unhindered voice, violin, percussion and electronica with movement, poetry and physical materials to create performances which invite and question passive and active audience participation. Emphasizing the absurd, intimate and sensual elements inherent in performance, Salazar weaves through action  as an experiential/intuitive form of knowledge. Her works often revolve around themes of Feral Tenderness, Poetic Image as Musical Score, and the weaving of collective sound tapestries as vehicles for collective catharsis and reflection. 

Salazar has performed and exhibited work internationally in Bardo Projektraum, B-Flat Jazz Bar and CAKE, in Berlin Germany, York University in the UK as well as STAMP Gallery, Maryland and several galleries in Chicago, United States. In CDMX she has performed at FAM UNAM, Auditorio Blas Galindo, Museo El Chopo, Casa del Lago and Venas Rotas Discos.
