Portrait of Sandra Gea

Sandra Gea is a French-Spanish self-taught artist of analogue collage (b.1978), currently based in Andalusia, Spain.

Her thought-provoking artworks infused with the spirit of dada reclaim innocence, wilderness and sensuality of the feminine body as natural states of being, overshadowed by sociocultural conditioning. 

In her artistic practice and work as a facilitator and space holder, she uses collage as a transformative and integrative medium to remember the individual story - the personal mythology - and weave it into the fabric of the collective narrative.

She has exhibited across Europe and in the USA in group exhibitions. Her works are in private collections worldwide and have been featured in multiple international publications such as Art Reveal, Kolaj Magazine and Maintenant Dada Magazine. In 2018, she illustrated the haiku collection In an Unknown Land written by Greek poet Kostas Linnos.
