Natalia Forcada
Lives and works in Buenos Aires, Argentina
Artist statement
My work explore the relationships between the psyche, the body and significant objects. I think of objects or materials as mirrors. I take my body and my work as a battlefield and symbolic operations where I can create little poetic alchemy. I think of my works as a staging of conflicts, emotions and experiences about being, as a question as a caress or a spear towards whoever experiences it. I create performative objects and devices with which I generate poetic actions that I usually record in still and moving images, always trying to seek transmutation.
