Coco Angelo is a Cuban-American artist based in London whose practice engages theatre, video, and painting. Her work explores the internal worlds of feminism, displacement, and socio-political struggles, often in conversation with one another. Through uniformed bodies, repeated frames, and encounters between folk and machine, Angelo often captures moments of stillness within chaos, staging climactic scenes that suggest both panic and revelation. Rooted in activism, Angelo engages with collective action through institutional critique; using protest, ritual, and self-organisation as tools for resistance and change. Inspired by Situationist strategies and Psychomagic, she reconfigures spaces through ‘situations’, challenging the preconceived and presenting new potentials - like a rainbow piercing through wreckage - pointing toward resilience and transformation.

Her work has been presented at YoungArts Gallery (Miami, 2020), The Horse Hospital (London, 2023), The Crypt Gallery (London, 2023), Hoxton Arches (London, 2025), Hoxton Cabin (London, 2025), Theatreship (London, 2025), and Farsight Gallery (London, 2025). Angelo also collaborates with feminist and experimental art groups including A Woman Becomes A Wolf When She Learns How To Scream and Cafe of Nobody. With Cafe of Nobody, she contributes to the radio project Radio de Nadie, whose first episode aired in December 2024 as part of a disruption at a Central Saint Martins, UAL, exhibition.
