Sandra Gea
Embodied Collage Practices
Resilience, memory and feminine identity are the pillars of my artistic inquiry. My analogue collages metabolize the tension between the Natural and the Human by invoking the power of language, myth and symbol to create sharp visual narratives nurtured in the profound and the profane of the Feminine Essence.
My art practice originates in my body within the reality of the here and now. This somatic approach continuously challenges the limits of my awareness and sensitivity. It is a travel within to extract the substance that will be transmuted onto pictures.
The birth of a piece is sometimes soft and flowing, other times visceral and violent but always through and out of my body.
"Sandra is committed to the quality of her soul, a free, restless and sensitive spirit that knows to withdraw and nurture herself in the stillness of her inner world. From this place, pictures of a thousand worlds inhabited by the artist will emerge." C.M.
