He lives in Sitges, a place that inspires him when it comes to creating, thanks to the landscapes rich in colors, shapes, nature, as well as a unique light that the Mediterranean gives off, not without forgetting the cosmopolitan social environment, with a lot of fashion and art present. completely innovative in the place. Nerea continues with her training in Gestalt Theater Therapy where she is currently participating in Barcelona. His continuous passion for the unconscious and art has led him to merge the two disciplines into one and create works framed in the artistic current of abstract expressionism, which allows him to experiment with his conscious emotions and his unconscious sensations. He likes to compose from the dissociated forms of the human body and the mixture of textures and colors that play with contrast. “I live by creating and representing characters that facilitate the staging of everyday life. I work with people, with whom I develop my maximum potential, we find together the originality of each one, the reason to give light and self-awareness, while new works emerge in my moments of solitude, which my unconscious has saved to come out at unexpected moments. … I represent works that connect me with childhood and at the same time with the present, and that without a doubt, my personality finds its voice through there; Psychoanalysis, painting and performance complete me, I give the world my best part”. Her signature is CAOS, by Sánchez-Castro, Nerea CAOS, since as she herself says “The best ideas emerge from CHAOS, but only when you manage to get the apex of exquisiteness out of it, it is good to make mistakes, try and experiment, only then will different and original things emerge”.
