Ximena Lama

“My art wanders between the then and the now, seeking unification through the continuity of the image and stops to focus on detail. It represents a subjective reality of society, of human behavior and its environment; a reality that is subject to consciousness. And this emotion materializes through the plane and the volume, the magazine paper and the stoneware. I am inspired by the beauty of the material: its color, texture and shape. Women inspire me as well as contrast and poetry. In this way, my works points the viewer towards new worlds, worlds that are not very distant because finally we are all part of them” www.ximenalama.com

About

Ximena Lama was born in Bolivia and grew up in Santiago de Chile. In 2004 she moved to Switzerland and since 2021 she lives again with her family in Santiago de Chile. Part of her artistic process involves being inspired by the never-ending press and advertising landscape while flipping through magazines. In the design of her works, the subconscious plays a decisive role, making itself felt in the course of the creative process and urging materialization.
