Elena Rocabert (Madrid) practices at the intersection of art and architecture. Her work, which takes form in painting, sculptural production and spatial intervention, centers on material experimentation to explore speculative fictions and cycles of transformation—rebirth, decay, and the tension between destruction and creation. Fiction, often tinged with dystopian undertones, serves as a critical tool in her practice, opening speculative paths for research and reflection. Rocabert’s work is grounded in a deep engagement with social ecologies and material experimentation, aiming to expose the unseen structures and layers embedded within space.
Rocabert completed her studies in architecture at the Polytechnic University of Madrid (ETSAM) and the Technische Universität Berlin (TU). From 2021 to 2024, she contributed to the curatorial team at Medialab within Matadero Madrid. In 2024, she took part in a collaborative artistic research initiative developed with TBA21–Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary and the Altamira Museum and Research Center, exploring the entangled temporalities of natural and cultural landscapes through more-than-human perspectives. She lectures on the Experimentation module in the Master's program in Textile Design and New Materials at IED. Her work has been exhibited across Europe, including venues such as Funkhaus Vienna, Madrid Design Festival, Teatros del Canal, Mayrit Bienal, Madrid Fashion Week, and Sala de Arte Joven in Madrid, among others.
