Playfully merging cut paper, photography, and bold mark-making, Clotilde Jiménez’s Self-Portrait in a Beret reconstructs the artist’s likeness through an inventive dialogue of material and form. A graduate of CIA and the Slade School of Fine Art (London), Jiménez has exhibited at global museums such as Museo Jumex and the Phillips Collection and his work is included in the Ford Foundation and Beth Rudin De Woody collections, among others. The Paris Olympics commissioned Jiménez to create posters for 2024 Games. This June, moCa Cleveland will debut his first major U.S. survey exhibition.

Clotilde Jiménez
Born in 1990 in Honolulu, Hawaii, Clotilde Jiménez now lives and works in Mexico City. He earned his MFA from The Slade School of Fine Art and his BFA from the Cleveland Institute of Art. Clotilde blends line and collage driven by a focus on materiality as shown through his reuse of everyday materials such as wallpaper, clothing, magazine clippings and Mexican craftpaper. Clotilde Jiménez: Shapeshift, opening on June 27, will be the most extensive presentation of Jiménez’s work to date, showcasing newly commissioned pieces alongside previously unseen drawings and process materials. Spanning his entire career, the exhibition will include early works from his time as a student at the Cleveland Institute of Art, providing a clear trajectory of his artistic evolution and the continuous transformation of his practice.
