THE STRUGGLE FOR RAW
Verónica Vázquez
23.09.2017 – 06.01.2018

An Uruguayan sculptress who is drawing particular attention on the international scene – just to mention her recent solo shows at Zona MacoMexican Contemporary Art Fair, Mexico City, and the National Museum of Visual Arts (MNAV) of Montevideo, Uruguay – Verónica Vázquez (Treinta y Tres, 1970) focuses her research on found materials, such as iron, fabric, cardboard, paper, threads of varying thicknesses. Visual elements that with care and passion she interweaves, interrogates, and makes dialogue, doing and undoing their original forms until she obtains vibratile webs, welcoming installations, small or large theaters of a private, intimate story, stirred by recollections and secrets.
