Karla Saenz

visual artist

Think of her as a a visual interpreter. Her work has always been a sort of bridge between three dimensions: nature, mind and humanity. As a creator, Karla gets constantly involved with anthropological matters and cultural phenomena. Among her principal quests is that of the truth revealed, and the almost-lost-sense of human purity. Her studies in urbanism, sustainability and bioethics have always guided her creative code onto a more "deffensive" discursivity. She creates power symbols. Throughout her work, one can easily recognize a profund respect towards craftmanship and ethnical spirituality. Her pieces reach a certain sense of documental tenacity that drives the spectator to an almost spiritual trance. 
Karla has shown her work in different contexts and spaces; the search of a non-museographical transcendence led her to become a fierceful creator. She doesn´t follow inspiration as it goes; to her, every art project she starts is -naturally- collective, and necessary.
