Laura Cid Sagarra
Physician and ergonomist whose creativity resurfaced after starting to illustrate educational stories for her sons. Her projects are memories of experiences, feelings and concerns of every moment of her life empathizing with the environment and the people in it, printing them on different materials.
She uses an abstract and gestural language in which figurative elements are incorporated into a framework of diversity and general inclusion.
The set of his works arises from the need to express the energy, movement, impulses and explosive or calm feelings generated from the soul of a diverse and unique human being in an organized world destined to standard bodies. The importance of collaboration.
A hidden or intuited figuration is sometimes shown. It emerges into abstraction using varied techniques in a different way, often mixed in the same work, incorporating random and working from it as it happens in life situations: a dialogue of overcoming or fusion with that unexpected. A diverse integration of materials in an Artwork as a diverse integration of people in the world. A world made for different people is a better world for everyone.
“Life has taught me to ask for help, that we cannot work and move forward alone and that, if we do not have wings to fly, we must walk”
