Andrea Aguilera

Andrea Aguilera’s project focuses on the search for methodologies that allow her to address some of the questions permeating the photographic image within her artistic practice. Through a process of study and observation, her material production emerges as a result of an approach to the work that is grounded in fragility, the body, and the transitory nature of the image. Thus, in (the act of staging), she initiates the search for a methodology that will allow her to propose new ways of reading the photographic image, in order to return it to a dimension of the imaginary that makes it possible to imagine-speculate.
