Sandra Vásquez de la Horra, Planetarium

Sandra Vásquez de la Horra draws on paper with graphite and occasionally colored pencil, after which she dips the papers in liquid wax to seal them as fragile objects of the diaphanous physicality that has characterized her work since 1997. The exhibition, titled "Planetarium," combines new works in various formats, some of which have been created specifically for the exhibition. Collectively, they document a new high in her universal mythological imagery. Sensitized by her origins, the artist's figures recombine the elements of mythological worlds of various cultures in which, having been avidly interested since her youth, she encounters a profound knowledge of South American and European literature, philosophy and anthropology.
