Martina Quesada

In past projects Quesada has been interested in the the construction of meaning within society through historical perspectives. Often questioning our ways of seeing and remembering as to go beyond social dogma, and that which seems certain and unchanging.
Many of her works consist in the use of simple geometrical systems to explore the intersection between visible and invisible, as well as the transition areas where transformation is triggered. Researching on how to disarticulate functional viewpoints in order to generate new ways of perceiving.
Recently, she has been working with sculpture, installation and video as to evoke personal introspection through the use of external references of nature and ancient sacred symbology. 
Part of Quesada’s investigation consists in the analysis of the impact of religious and sacred imagery on contemporary social dynamics. And how representation and information are conveyed and interiorized over time. At the same time, examining traditional rituals and worship practices as reference points to consider the various pathways to spiritual realization. Currently exploring the possibility of bridging areas between spirituality and consciousness as to channel towards less alienated states in relation to our current environmental crisis.
Her works are included in institutional and private collections such as MACBA and MALI
museum.
