Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary artwork features a striking teal-colored fabric background that contrasts with the prominent textured, fiber-like elements in the center. The intricate, tangled strings and strands appear to be woven or crocheted, creating a dynamic, almost sculptural composition. The overall effect is one of organic, natural forms juxtaposed against the bold, monochromatic backdrop, suggesting themes of growth, decay, or the interplay between natural and manmade materials. The distinctive textile techniques and the interplay of colors and textures reflect the artist's skilled craftsmanship and innovative approach to textile-based contemporary art. ...

Sandra Monterroso
B.1974, Guatemalan

Sandra Monterroso’s work uses sophisticated strategies to point to historical moments of great tension. Using various languages such as performance or video, and various perspectives, Monterroso investigates and deepens ideas about personal, historical and colonial wounds. Her practice can be understood as an exercise of healing one’s own body and history or culture. Through her performative actions in which she includes sculpture, objects and installations, she projects her relationship with the sacred and how it manifests itself in a continuous mythical return, in contrast to the linearity proposed by a modern reading of reality. With a voice that resonates from her maternal lineage of Mayan Q’eq’chi culture, Sandra’s practice signals the symbolic, spiritual, social and political aspects that constantly alter contemporaneity. It is a timeless and polyphone discourse. Her reflections are directed towards an attempt to redefine her decolonized identity, for this reason her work makes a constant return to her geographical territory of origin, and she adopts and incorporates cultural elements of her ancestry through which she transforms her contemporary and contradictory condition. ...

Instituto de Visión
Bogotá, New York City

Instituto de Vision is a Bogotá and New York based gallery for conceptual practices. Their mission is to investigate conceptual discourses that have been neglected by the official Latin American art canon. They have recovered important estates from the Latin American art of the mid century and continue to research the most enigmatic oeuvres of the region. Through a parallel program, they represent some of the most relevant contemporary practices from Colombia, Chile, North America, Venezuela, and others. Directed by three women, Instituto de Vision gives special attention to female voices, queer theories, environmental activism, the conflicts of migration, and other critical positions that challenge the established order. Using the international art scene as a platform, they are committed to give visibility and expand the work of artists that reveal critical realities and raise important questions for these contemporary subjects. ...
