Lucha Rodríguez
"SV XV, Knife Drawing" Superficially Hand Cut Patterns on Watercolor

2022

About the Item

This piece titled SV XV, Knife Drawing is an original artwork by Lucha Rodríguez made of watercolor and manipulated paper This piece measures 34"h x 26.5"w framed and is shipped in the pictured white frame. Rodríguez begins her work in the studio with a ritualized routine informed by her training as a certified hypnotherapist. The process allows her to access her subconscious and sensory memories, the pursuit of which forms the basis of her practice. Foggy recollections from the deep recesses of the artist’s mind are brought into sharper focus, as she engages her senses, and concentrates on the flickers of clarity that arises. Seemingly insignificant details, like the weight and texture of an object in her hand, or the fleeting smell of a cool breeze, allow fragmented memories to resurface in her consciousness. The color pink, present in all of Rodríguez’s work, serves as a conduit for the sublime, and anchors the act of making in the fleshy warmth of the embodied self. Each cut of the knife requires unwavering precision and dexterity. The methodical rhythm of Rodríguez’s hand and the blade, cut after cut, guides her into a state of flow and awareness. Art making is, in its essence, a metaphysical act of transformation – a process made visible through Rodríguez’s studio practice. Rodríguez’s work invites slow looking, encouraging viewers to embrace the idiosyncrasy and illusion of perception. In each step toward its actualization, the body of work in the exhibition is rooted in phenomenological experience and sensory knowledge, driven by the artist’s intuition and the ephemeral alignment of mind and body, past and present, Sense and Vision.
