Miguel Rózpide (b. 1997, Pontevedra, Spain)  is a multimedia artist based in Antwerp, Belgium, whose practice investigates the architecture of psychic distance and the physical artefacts of human connection, he utilizes analog photography and archival processes to explore how memory and history are reconfigured.

His attraction to these rigid systems is deeply personal, rooted in a childhood of isolation where he realized that while he could not always bridge gaps with words he could bridge them through objects. For him installations and archives become safe, structured environments where he can use the cold logic of a system to say what he cannot say out loud. By documenting the "blind spots" of shared experiences he creates non-linear spaces where the heavy weight of technical reality meets the fragile weightlessness of human emotion.

Archiving the HorizonGroup Exhibition
Nadya Kotova Gallery w/ TENZU
Antwerp
2026

This exhibition subverts an inherited archive  into a material exploration of distance. Utilizing unvarnished silver leaf that tarnishes from light into dark, the works transform cold systems of control into a fragile poetry of decay.

The Repeated ImageBFA Graduation Show
Antwerp
2019

In this group of works, small and different variations reveal how memory actually works, not as a single, fixed point, but as a sequence of nearly identical moments, each carrying its own slight difference.

Edition of 5
2019

From 1 to 20 continues my exploration of my family archive, this time focussing on the system my grandfather used to organise it. Slides that shared the same number were never intended to be placed together, yet they now form unexpected pairs.

Panacea
Self-published
54 pages | Design and binding by Francisco Santamouris
Edition of 3
2018

Human connection brings complex values to our lives: relationships give us a sense of belonging in the group, a sense of identity in contrast to others in that group, an almost therapeutic-support system, and reason not to feel lonely.
