Sylvia Fernández explores mind, body and nature at 'Shape Shifting,' an upcoming show at Two Rooms Gallery in La Jolla
Sylvia Fernández has just returned from the desert. In her quaint cottage home and studio in Carlsbad, she reflects on the desolate and barren landscapes that gave her the inspiration for her most recent paintings.
It’s important to point out that it would be inaccurate to classify Fernández as an artist who is inspired by nature. At least not in the stereotypical sense. “For me, it’s not about accomplishing an image. I don’t care about the image,” she says. “It’s about accomplishing something that I need to get out. When it’s done, the painting gives back to you something you would never imagine.”
She goes on to explain that, in a sense, the pandemic shifted her focus on how to approach her work. That in the isolation of quarantining, she found herself connecting with the everyday objects and places around her, both living and inanimate. Things that had always been there, but that they were then, as she recalls it, “saying something new” to her.
“My pond, Mi estanque” by Peru-born artist Sylvia Fernández, who is exhibiting in “Shape Shifting,” a dual show with Jamie Franks, at Two Rooms gallery in La Jolla in June.
