Nora Unda (Santiago, Chile, 1982) is a sculptor and visual artist whose practice transforms an unexpected material—plasticine—into complex, luminous reliefs. Trained at the University of Chile and specialized in bronze and aluminum casting,  she brings a sculptor’s sensibility to surfaces: building volume, texture, and narrative through countless hand-placed gestures. Her works unfold as dreamlike compositions—abstract ecosystems, fragmented landscapes, and symbolic beings—rooted in nature, animals, and the visual language of cinema. 

Unda describes her intention as a way to symbolically reveal the fragility of life and the human impulse to manipulate it, creating scenes where emotion, mystery, and symbolism are the stage for new visual stories. 

Her career includes multiple solo and group exhibitions across galleries, museums, and cultural institutions, with recent years marked by international presentations in Egypt, London, Madrid, Pescara, and Miami.  She has also collaborated with musicians, brands, and foundations, expanding her language across formats such as murals and mixed media projects.
