Angela Cuadra

Angela CuadraMadrid, 1978---Angela CuadraÁngela Cuadra investigates images that revolve around concealment techniques used throughout recent history, in a broad phenomenological study of invisibility. By examining the tensions between the natural and the artificial, the public and the private, the whole and the parts, the essential and the superfluous, the artist uses material with pre-existing historical and semantic charges to reconvert and resignify it. Grounded in collage and approached from intuition, her works induce compositions in which the found material is barely elaborated, with the forms themselves taking center stage through their juxtaposition with other materials. The special focus on the dialogue between fragments, on the emotion that arises when finding chords of color, form or texture, resemble the perception of her work to that of a musical composition. Making language without literature, making music without melody, making painting without painting. To build from the base of what is given, of what is found in the margins. She has held exhibitions at the Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo (CA2M, Centro de Arte Joven, Centro Cultural Conde Duque and CentroCentro, in Madrid; Today Museum, in Beijing; Centro del Carmen, Valencia; SantAndreu Contemporani, Barcelona; Cultural Foundation of Providencia, Providencia (Chile); María José Jové Foundation, A Coruña; Centro Galegode Arte Contemporánea (CGAC), Santiago de Compostela; International Centre of Graphic Arts (MGLC), Ljubljana, Frans Masereel Centrum (FMC), Kasterlee (Belgium); International Print Triennial Society in Krakow (SMTG), Krakow; Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMSU), Rijeka (Croatia) and Foundation Tallinn Print Triennial (TPT), Tallinn.
