Description

The daughter of a ballet teacher and a sculptor, Linet Sánchez Gutiérrez navigated between both fields during her student years in search of her own expressive language. Her fascination with the interplay between what is lost or saved by memory prompted her to create white, empty architectural models based on her hazy memories. By then photographing these models, Sánchez Gutiérrez subtly concealed clues as to their true nature, allowing their near realism to induce confusion.

 

Hija de una profesora de ballet y un escultor, Linet Sánchez Gutiérrez exploró ambos campos durante su formación, buscando desarrollar un lenguaje expre- sivo propio. Para crear estas maquetas arquitectónicas blancas y vacías se basa en recuerdos borrosos, impul- sada por su interés en la relación entre las memorias que la mente conserva y las que se pierden. Al fotogra- fiarlas, Sánchez Gutiérrez disimula sutilmente los indicios sobre su verdadera naturaleza, permitiendo que su apariencia realista genere confusión.
