Holds an MFA in Sculpture from Rhode Island School of Design (2020) and a BFA in Fine Arts from the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (2015). She is interested in the reactions and forms of decay that emerge from the encounters between nature, industry, bodies, and environs. Exploring the materiality of these relationships, she intertwines knowledge from biology, cooking, crafts, along with the application of traditional techniques such as glass and metalwork. Her installations aim to dissolve the normative view of nature and the hierarchies that disentangle human productions from ecology, generating attention towards non-dominant materialities and thus revealing other dimensions and possibilities of coexistence. Her work has been exhibited in various spaces and museums such as the RISD Museum, Providence, Rhode Island, Museum of Contemporary Art, Santiago de Chile, Museum of Natural History, Santiago, Chile,&nbsp; CCU Gallery, Santiago de Chile, Museum of Visual Arts, Santiago de Chile, Galeria Patricia Ready, Santiago de Chile, Local Arte Contemporáneo Santiago de Chile, among others.Accompanying her studio practice, she recently authored article on the oceanic turn and material feminisms that was published Feminist Review´s issue ‘Oceans’, United Kingdom, 2022. Her current practice delves into the study of aqueous materialities as entities that flow, erode, and nourish, undoing the rigid categorizations of human and nature. ༘ eburmann@gmail.com . <img width="341" height="227" width_o="341" height_o="227" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8d082b7aa8db91457ad2682260672004737a8a40bdc74b3cfe0614708936e114/DSC_0852-chicachica.jpg" data-mid="148536800" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/341/i/8d082b7aa8db91457ad2682260672004737a8a40bdc74b3cfe0614708936e114/DSC_0852-chicachica.jpg" /> <img width="123" height="172" width_o="123" height_o="172" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/408661b610d6237b3668b007dfc974c470a2301ed2ef10a4e9242185549aaa3a/images-3.jpg" data-mid="226968385" border="0" data-scale="27" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/123/i/408661b610d6237b3668b007dfc974c470a2301ed2ef10a4e9242185549aaa3a/images-3.jpg" /> <img width="200" height="180" width_o="200" height_o="180" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2766692dc31fffcea0e7ec38d2dc1340e741d0b67b505288983929e49b6c2d84/borboletas-butterflies.gif" data-mid="226968074" border="0" data-scale="49" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/200/i/2766692dc31fffcea0e7ec38d2dc1340e741d0b67b505288983929e49b6c2d84/borboletas-butterflies.gif" /> <img width="204" height="192" width_o="204" height_o="192" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/819e13164fdd87d48edaf8f3a3881282249c23940c0716549abf28ec1476829e/download.jpg" data-mid="226968085" border="0" data-scale="32" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/204/i/819e13164fdd87d48edaf8f3a3881282249c23940c0716549abf28ec1476829e/download.jpg" /> <img width="2538" height="1986" width_o="2538" height_o="1986" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4044cd3330c4c460237d3b0a939bb73742934f85cf1966087ba9d7b92b00a075/54423bcd00b4ab67beefa0741428f813-1.jpg" data-mid="226968121" border="0" data-scale="70" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4044cd3330c4c460237d3b0a939bb73742934f85cf1966087ba9d7b92b00a075/54423bcd00b4ab67beefa0741428f813-1.jpg" /> <img width="1280" height="960" width_o="1280" height_o="960" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f9efd02f7bfcbb27481f33344949c2d50683558fc5fe4745095907fe219a1c69/A_clam.jpg" data-mid="226999748" border="0" data-scale="63" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f9efd02f7bfcbb27481f33344949c2d50683558fc5fe4745095907fe219a1c69/A_clam.jpg" /> <img width="618" height="618" width_o="618" height_o="618" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c49725438357c13ce74227b20fb5cc5c0a9a42770f5fc824f3d96198e089937c/7f24e0c2e00f5386470ed24be5110ca8.gif" data-mid="226999728" border="0" data-scale="31" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/618/i/c49725438357c13ce74227b20fb5cc5c0a9a42770f5fc824f3d96198e089937c/7f24e0c2e00f5386470ed24be5110ca8.gif" /> <img width="320" height="320" width_o="320" height_o="320" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5a714c3fc8019c32b0da539fa48a47a11753cb087f2dc06731328eaeef0eae12/mussels.jpg" data-mid="226968125" border="0" data-scale="41" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/320/i/5a714c3fc8019c32b0da539fa48a47a11753cb087f2dc06731328eaeef0eae12/mussels.jpg" /> <img width="600" height="360" width_o="600" height_o="360" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/511b4b4bdf81dbf7ad9246acbe2d2ee7775fc717923de20be09b93b5984dbd7a/O6XZ.gif" data-mid="226999705" border="0" data-scale="71" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/600/i/511b4b4bdf81dbf7ad9246acbe2d2ee7775fc717923de20be09b93b5984dbd7a/O6XZ.gif" /> https://elizabethburmann.com/Research-menu Thu, 26 Jan 2023 13:39:35 +0000 nini https://elizabethburmann.com/Research-menu https://elizabethburmann.com/Decorator-crabs Sun, 08 Jan 2023 11:58:01 +0000 nini https://elizabethburmann.com/Decorator-crabs &nbsp;OCEANIC FEMINISM PROJECTS: Collective research-project in collaboration with Jianni Tien.

Responding to the ebbs, flows and transformations of the oceanic turn, our article outlines our interactions with four decorator crabs. It begins by situating our experience of thinking-with these crabs as a feminist practice of care within the conceptual context of the ocean. Our article then draws on the knowledge that arose out of our fertile entanglements with the crabs to propose that: 1) the aquarium, with its colonial histories of subjugation, is a fertile space to re-image human– aquatic relationalities, revealing the fallacy of human control over ‘nature’ and emphasising the agency of marine worlds; 2) Stacy Alaimo’s concept of trans-corporeality is a powerful way to think through the consequences of an acidifying ocean, both for ourselves and for our shelled companions; and 3) remediation is a radical approach to taking seriously the materiality of watery worlds. The objective of the article is to craft a practice of material feminism that entangles our more-than-human bodies to learn-with decorator crabs. In doing so, we show that the aquarium is a potent space of transformation that allows us to imagine new and distinctly feminist entanglements that dismantle hierarchies. We show that thinking-with the materiality of marine worlds is a series of remediations, both material and discursive, that dissolve the boundaries between entities. ﹌﹌﹌ Love letter for decorator crabs.

The imaginary of the ocean is an interconnecting and interconnected force. The ocean, with its hypnotic lack of form, reminds us that who we are does not end at the skin. We bleed into our environments, and our environments bleed into us. The sea is both conceptually and materially entangled with us: we are on a transcorporeal continuum with the ocean.

Unfolding a narrative alongside images, surfaces, sculptures, and interventions that delve beyond the visible and the human domain, the exbhition invites us to consider our material interactions with bodies that exceed our own and, based on that experience, to imagine other scenarios, diluting our notions of perspective and human scale.The exhibition, named after the essay “Your Shell on Acid: Material Immersion, Anthropocene Dissolves” by environmental humanities scholar Stacy Alaimo, proposes a material turn to consider the marine shells and carapaces that are currently suffering from disintegration due to atmospheric pollution and ocean acidification. Like our bodies or the neoclassical building that houses the museum itself, these shelters and their porosity are affected by the dissolution of hegemonic narratives and the political, social, emotional and environmental crises of our times. “Concha en Ácido” challenges our own corporality and way of inhabiting, searching for the dissolution of our protective layers, limits, and shelled individuality, to find new shelters that allow us to transform and coexist more attentively, drifting us into scenarios for material imagination. Through this drift, we are lured to engage with alternative realities where terrestrial, aqueous, natural, and industrial boundaries blur into rare ensembles. In a call to reconsider our role as mere observers, the exhibition invites us to actively engage with the materials and narratives that affect us, becoming co-creators of a world where imagination and materiality intertwine. This immersion into the realms of material imagination offers a glimpse into a future where our understanding of self, environment, and existence is shaped not by rigid constructs but by the fluid exchange of collective visualizations. ︎ As part of the exhibition program was held the conversation “De Your Shell on Acid a Concha en ácido” with feminist philosopher Stacy Alaimo.

Sala Museo Gabriela Mistral. Universidad de Chile inaugurates an art exhibition that revisits the collection of Pablo Neruda, displaying thousands of seashells belonging to his collection. As part of a joint effort between the Andrés Bello Central Archive and the Vice Rectory of Extension and Communications of the University of Chile (VEXCOM), this new exhibition is designed under the concept and design of visual artist Elizabeth Burmann Littin. Regarding this, the national sculptor “emphasizes the importance of directing our gaze towards these creatures, as they are the second largest group within the animal kingdom and catalysts for the various climate effects that have occurred throughout eras due to the impact of human and industrial activity on the marine ecosystem.” In this sense, the exhibition becomes an opportunity t reflect on the collection of natural species, and for the public to appreciate this set from a perspective that values biodiversity and the importance of mollusks. In the same vein, visual artist Elizabeth Burmann pointed out at the inauguration event that in the current context of human detachment from nature, it is of “vital importance to immerse our gaze into the ocean and pay attention to the creatures that inhabited the thousands of empty seashells in this collection,” as - although they may seem distant - “these slimy creatures are surprisingly familiar to our own origin and the various forms of life on the planet. Those of us present here carry in our genetics an oceanic origin,” because “the plasma of our blood shares the chemistry and salinity levels of ancient seas. In other words, we carry an ocean within.” Through this extraordinary collection, the exhibition allows visitors to travel through the seven seas with species ranging from the most common to those that stand out due to the rarity of their species, genres, classes, sizes, and colors. Through various artistic, visual, and sound elements, the exhibition invites the public to reflect on the collection of biological species, alongside the aesthetic and ecological dimensions that connect us to oceanic diversity. <img width="1200" height="1600" width_o="1200" height_o="1600" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e92aaf3dde57f6a031b420147af41d7394a11ea40b5b872d579fdbc5b14aff5d/WhatsApp-Image-2024-12-16-at-14.14.18.jpeg" data-mid="227137606" border="0" data-scale="15" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e92aaf3dde57f6a031b420147af41d7394a11ea40b5b872d579fdbc5b14aff5d/WhatsApp-Image-2024-12-16-at-14.14.18.jpeg" /> https://elizabethburmann.com/Pupila Fri, 21 Feb 2025 02:45:31 +0000 nini https://elizabethburmann.com/Pupila Pupila&nbsp; Two Seven Two Gallery, Toronto, Canada, 2023.Curated by Yasmin Nurming-Por.<img width="1714" height="2400" width_o="1714" height_o="2400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6ac44b8c6982b576ae572cabfbbd3e987b97d93f05483b220a9d1f433c7ef050/IMG_4524-copy-2.jpg" data-mid="226965949" border="0" data-scale="77" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6ac44b8c6982b576ae572cabfbbd3e987b97d93f05483b220a9d1f433c7ef050/IMG_4524-copy-2.jpg" /> <img width="2400" height="1714" width_o="2400" height_o="1714" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e27ea07aa73cffd73892824fd9b392ee980f66ae5dd63175dcb0ef80d1f11273/IMG_4405-copy-2.jpg" data-mid="227001961" border="0" data-scale="95" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e27ea07aa73cffd73892824fd9b392ee980f66ae5dd63175dcb0ef80d1f11273/IMG_4405-copy-2.jpg" /> Pupila, installation view .

Borrowing the form of a tower viewer—fixed binoculars common in tourist destinations—her invertebrate glasses act as an intermediary between the outside world and the artist’s practice of worldmaking. Bringing together references from feminist science- fiction and decorative allusions to Art Nouveau the artist constructs an industrial aqueous landscape where ancient stalagmites, Jurassic shells and gelatinous beings co-exist.With a strong knowledge of craft-based methods, Burmann Littin is a disobedient student. The central sculpture beso vegetal (2023) at once resembles a fragmented oyster shell and the bisection of a limb, anthropomorphized using rubber and stained glass. Like a beckoning call from a distant room, her seductive works ask you to meet them on the level of the floor, the ceiling and the wall. Combining organic materials sourced across Chile, Rhode Island and Ontario with steel manufactured in Hamilton, she muddies the separation between humans and nature. As the artist shares “everything is a beast in the wrong environment,” here beast and beauty are open to interpretation.Contrasting the cold materiality of steel, an atmospheric pink light evokes the warmth of a perpetual sunset with the potential of a sunrise, or a dawn beckoning an unknown time. Recalling the triviality of human time to earthly—and more than earthly—time, her reconfigurations of creaturely life perform a slippery, anachronistic dance like an eyelid flickering over a pupila (pupil).—Curatorial text by Yasmin Nurming-Por
