Antonia Caicedo Holguín: “My work is autobiographical. By combining life, memory, and imagination I depict my friends and family members, as well as painting others specially those who are close to me. Painting reveals something about myself that was previously unknown to me or hidden. The visual quest of my practice, drove me to pursuit materials and processes that are close to my heart. I choose materials that remind me of my childhood or ones that I feel I can use to reflect my own pictorial language. Whether that is using oil paint, pastels, or unconventional mediums such as painting with coffee grounds, coffee dyes, natural Latin American pigments, or using photography dark room processes as a drawing medium, and even using found objects such as rocks and tiles.”
