About the Item

The basis of Beatriz's painted scenes is an exploration of the construction of reality. She represents this by analyzing all the things that are contained in a given space — and what links them. In her eyes, narrative sequences are thus born or constructed, connected to each other by spontaneous links. Beatriz views her painted works as collages that she has pieced together to rebuild an everyday scene from her life. What has survived in her memory is ranked, and categorized. Maps, blueprints, cartography; any visual reference from the real world are the basis of her preliminary notes and sketches. That being said, she deliberately introduces a sense of doubt about the events of a scene, replacing, for example, a character with an allusion. Beatriz also works with the notion of instability, visiting the past and representing its uncertainty through new interpretations. About this piece she says: "This is the memory of my first hands-on project - a small bench - under the surprised gaze of my brother and with the complicity of my mother who hated my 'tomboy' side but who was proud nonetheless. A female tutelary figure evokes one of my favorite drawing teachers." Beatriz Guzman Catena was born in Argentina in 1974. She lives and works in Paris.
