Alejandro Chellet works at the intersection of performance, food systems, land-based research, and radical hospitality. His practice approaches food as material, method, and social choreography to examine how bodies, care, and ecological relations are shaped within rural, peri-urban, and institutional contexts.
Developed through long-term, practice-based research processes, his work unfolds across performance, hosting, agriculture, and collective eating, understood as interconnected artistic actions rather than discrete works. Hospitality operates as a political framework that structures access, responsibility, and power, while land is approached as a contested commons shaped by migration, extraction, regeneration, and tourism. Informed by a queer and ecosexual perspective, his practice emphasizes embodied and ethical relationships with land, food, and more-than-human agencies. Through performance, food-based experimentation, and situated fieldwork, Chellet creates conditions for reflection on how intimacy, labor, and care are negotiated within contemporary cultural and ecological systems. 
Alejandro Chellet is a Mexican artist and curator and cultural practitioner working between Europe and the Americas. They hold a Master’s degree in Fine Arts in Performance from the Norwegian Theatre Academy. Their artistic practice encompasses performance, installation, video, and socially engaged methodologies, often developed through long-term, research-based processes. Chellet has presented their work internationally in museums, festivals, and residency programs. They are the founder and co-founder artistic platforms, including Huerto Roma Verde (Mexico City), Casa Viva Gallery (Mexico City), and Rosekill Art Farm (Hudson Valley, USA).
