"Lírica"

gelatin silver print (cut out) on cardboard

signed, dated, titled and technique (pencil) on verso

Colombian artist Johanna Calle finds the themes for her poetic works on paper mainly in the realities that arise from her Latin American background. Through an expanded concept of drawing and after intensive periods of research, her refined artistic practice sheds light on important social and political issues, such as social inequality, violence, ecological concerns or the loss of cultural identity. Through her choice of materials and the artistic execution, Calle constructs complex, symbolically charged representations.
