Born 1984 in Dagestan, Russia. Lives and works in Mexico City, Mexico.
The drawing and painting practice of Ebecho Muslimova manifests a graphic trajectory of the personal and exposed, the comedic and the disquieting. Centered around the artist’s alter ego, Fatebe, a bold and sexually liberated character. The works depict a persona shameless and free, exploring the world in ridiculous and impossible situations that revel in the celebration of carnal processes and bodily curiosity.

Her work has also been included in major group exhibitions, including
Capítulo V: Heat at LagoAlgo, Mexico City (2024); Unruly Bodies at Goldsmiths CCA, London (2023); Fun Feminism at Kunstmuseum Basel (2022); and Unrealism at Deitch Projects, Los Angeles (2021).
