Dominica Sánchez
Barcelona, Spain, 1945
Dominica's paintings are feminine works that dialogue with the viewer as an invitation to look and ask questions.
From the intense red tones to the black and white, they hang from the walls in acrylic works on canvas, showing the best works in two dimensions of this artist known especially for her sculptures that play with the curve, the void and the space, and taking as starting point the attraction of the artist for the light, the color and the ephemeral qualities of the air.
The drawings are personal observations of a natural world, marked by a dialogue between the fragile and ephemeral and the volume musculature. The game that makes slight curves, drawn with pencil, and the dense and opaque geometries that mark his drawings creates a balanced space.
