Artist statement

Helena Fernández-Cavada (Madrid, 1979) is a visual artist currently based in Malmö, Sweden. She draws every day in order to pose questions and spend time with them, a process which Hannah Arendt called ‘understanding’, one that ranges from the questioning of established relationships to emerging contradictions as an attitude to life.
