Sheroanawe Hakihiiwe (in collaboration with ABRA)

(b. 1971, Sheroana, Venezuela)

Sheroanawe Hakihiiwe is a Yanomami indigenous artist who lives and works between Caracas and Platanal, a Yanomami community in the Upper Orinoco, in Venezuela.

Since the 90s, Hakihiiwe has been developing a visual language that traces and commemorates landscapes, cosmogonies, and ancestral indigenous traditions. Among his most recent projects, his participation in the Venice Biennale in 2022 stands out, as well as his recent solo exhibitions at the São Paulo Museum of Art (MASP, 2023) and the Museum of Contemporary Art of Santiago de Chile (2025). Hakihiiwe was also an artist-in-residence at the Civitella Ranieri Foundation (Umbria, 2023) and has attended workshops at the Interdisciplinary Arts Department, Columbia College.
