Alfredo Gallegos' practice unfolds through everyday scenarios and experiences where he introduces materials foreign to traditional practices of painting, sculpture, and drawing.

His exercise is based on creating works through elements that have been transmuted, such as clay, wood, medicine packaging, organic matter, wax, old matchboxes, and various restoration components, where each material is considered a source of information.Gallegos studied Visual Arts at the Faculty of Arts and Design (UNAM, 2009-2013), also completing a Diploma in Curating at the Academia de San Carlos (UNAM, 2014) and worked as a curator at Colectivo Tres and Fundación Novangardo.
