Sandra Vásquez de la Horra: Reading the Waves is an exhibition of new work by the Chilean-born, Berlin-based artist Sandra Vásquez de la Horra, whose practice is grounded in drawing. Her poetic visual universe depicts the interconnectedness of the human body and the natural world, drawing on spiritual mythologies, folklore, religious iconographies, and Latin American popular imagery. For the exhibition she creates an immersive scenography of spatial interventions, suspended structures, and leporellos, including a chapel-like circular installation of monumental drawings oriented to the cardinal points and the sun. Central themes are reading signs in the natural world—clouds, rainbows, and waves—and water's mysteries, with works portraying figures like Olokun, Yemanyá, and Pacha-Mama, all dipped in beeswax.
