Sandra Mack-Valencia: Bridging Reality and Dream

Sandra Mack-Valencia, a Colombian-born artist now based in New York, has cultivated a distinct artistic voice by blending her cultural heritage with the influences of her adopted home. Her upbringing in Colombia, immersed in fairy tales and urban legends, infuses her work with a sense of magical realism. Drawing inspiration from vintage photos, literature, film, and fashion, Mack-Valencia creates pieces that are both nostalgic and contemporary.

Her artistic process is key to understanding her work. She combines photographic transfer with painting, layering elements of reality and memory to achieve a dreamlike effect. This technique allows her to explore the intersection between the tangible world and the realm of imagination, inviting viewers to question the nature of perception and truth.
