OCCASIONAL LANDSCAPES
SAMUEL RIERA
We join the artist on a journey of discovery to a world where precise, multi-layered, dimensional paper collages, often cut from fashion magazines, spring to life as the thriving inhabitants of Planeta Sandra. She manages to blend the whimsical and the sensual, the threatening and the sublime as she recounts the mythological folklore of a primordial world not that far from our own.
With an explorer’s eye and a botanist’s discipline, Sandra meticulously catalogs each Sandremios by genus and species as specimens deserving of further study.
In these collages, I deconstruct everyday forms to create new narratives.
Through the use of nature, science and whimsy, I invent new landscapes and environments in a visual language that is uniquely my own.
-Sandra Cordero
As curator and philosopher, Luis Ramaggio, observes, “As any respected expeditionist, she quietly observes and classifies. As a visionary. As a hungry expert. As a mentalist. Lurking around her own self, and wandering through her habits and personality, Sandra discovers that she herself is a world.”

DIONNYS MATOS

Dionnys Matos was born in Holguín in 1991. He grew up near the sea and the countryside, his love for nature grew significantly, developing in him an immediate sensitivity to it; his interest in how he saw the world inclined him in a general way towards art. He started in 2006 at the Professional Academy of Plastic Arts "EL ALBA" where he was trained as an artist. After graduating, Dionnys focused on the audiovisual as a tool to create social questions and emphasize life and death; a theme which is rooted throughout his work both plastic and audiovisual. He has won several awards on the island, such as the ICAIC Youth Exhibition, Almacén de la Imagen, TV Serrano, and Havana Time. He currently lives in Bogotá, Colombia and Havana, Cuba working on new plastic projects that promote recycling, raise awareness of environmental care and make an almost poetic resistance against excessive consumption.
“The environment. Which is a theme that comes to my work in the form of awareness. Nature moves me, it affects me, from a small piece of garbage on the beach to the excessive consumption and its consequences (…) I have the conviction that a change can be generated from art. And that is what I want to do with my work.”
