Magaly Sanchez
Circular acrylic painting: floral and geometric greens

2018

About the Item

Sánchez’s world of plants, leaves, and flowers, inhabit a dense landscape of bright colors and sensual motifs. Sánchez combines these natural figurative settings with stripes and other geometric shapes. While seemingly at odds with each other, the geometric and the natural work in perfect collaboration in Sánchez’s work. Magaly Sánchez (b. 1969) is a Peruvian artist from Lima, currently based in Mexico City. She studied art at the Faculty of Art of the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru, specializing in painting. Her works combine geometry and nature to produce clean and orderly figurative works that end up, consciously or unconsciously, reproducing in an "invisible" way, the geometric order. Everything stems from the smallest microbes; the totality of Sánchez imagery emphasizes that both manmade geometric structures, as well as every detail of natural life, from a plant, down to how its leaves fall around its stem, depend on fractality. Fractality, for Sánchez, is a way of seeing order and structure in everything. All of Sánchez’s works, whether evidently or more obscurely, inspire contemplation of order. Geometry exists in nature as well as in the manmade world and indeed in humanity’s own biology. Sánchez finds awe in this pervasive order, which seems infinite, eternal, and mysterious. In 2019, Magaly Sánchez had a solo exhibition at the Embassy of Peru in Washington DC, United States, which inaugurated the Embassy's Annual Cultural Promotion Program of “Peruvian Women in the Arts” aimed at revaluing Peruvian women through their artistic expressions. Sánchez’s work has also been exhibited in Lima, New York, Caracas, Los Cabos (Mexico), and Madrid.
