JULIANA HERRERO

Sones Naturalis 2016

"My work comes from a spatial sensibility that unfolds in an expanded media. I define it in continue transformation and I let it transcend conventional formats, deconstructing, fragmenting and re-layering. Dealing with the processes of change and with the specific context, it becomes also site-specific, crystalizing mostly in fragile installations and sculptural works as immersive and fictional realities. In my latest works I juxtapose sound to visual exploring a sort of synesthetic aesthetic, my inner experience of musicality. I am interested in the dialectic relations of private and public spheres and in the subtle limits of inner and outer worlds, exploring their osmotic boundaries through alienating and subversive strategies. I tackle themes that embrace life, nature, perception and virtual dimensions. Swelling at the limits of the illusionary and the real‚ within my work I attempt to emotionally provoke the audience while leaving an empty space for the imagination." - Juliana Herrero
