Teresa Correa (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, 1961) is a photographer and visual artist, trained in Sociology at the Complutense University of Madrid and in Photography at the CEV in Madrid.
Drawing on her island experience, her practice explores what remains outside official narratives and questions the ways of seeing and representing the landscape. She employs the archaeological grid as both methodology and metaphor, and works with archives and museum repositories to propose interpretations open to revision. The body permeates her research as the primary territory and surface for inscribing memory.
Her lines of work encompass time, territory, memory, archaeology, and anthropology, in dialogue between the Canary Islands and other territories.
She has exhibited in the Canary Islands, Spain, and in South Korea, Taiwan, Costa Rica, Cuba, Bolivia, Mexico, Mali, Senegal, Uruguay, and Chile. In 2020, she received the Silver Can Award for the Arts from the Gran Canaria Island Council. Her work is part of the Canary Islands Artists Library (BAC, 2023) and national and international public collections, including the Spanish Ministry of Culture, Les Abattoirs Musée-Frac Occitanie (Toulouse), TEA, CAAM, the Government of the Canary Islands, and the Cine Nómada Foundation for the Arts (Bolivia). Teresa Correa has participated in the “Vision and Presence” Performance Series, organized in collaboration with the Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum.
