Ursula Mur (b. 1990, Lima, Peru) is a multidisciplinary artist working across painting, ceramics, installation, printmaking, and performance. After studying painting in Lima, she moved to New York, where she trained at The Art Students League of New York. She later returned to Peru and founded Espacio 22, an independent space for experimental and emerging artists.

Maintaining a strong connection with New York, she eventually returned to formally study traditional painting—seeking the technical tools needed to break rules with intention and transform, question, or even destroy artistic conventions with purpose.

Mur has participated in various artist residencies and continues to create wherever she finds spaces that allow experimentation and dialogue. Her journey has taken her to Amsterdam, Berlin, Mexico City, and currently Lisbon, where she is in residence.

Pierre Clémenti once said: “Either you sell yourself and thus empty out, or you stay on the fringes and fight for your ideas.” For Mur, art is life—not a business. Her goal is to make work that speaks to the present moment, invites reflection, and offers a quiet sense of connection with the world around us.
