Amanda Rodríguez
Amanda Rodríguez (1984) is a Chilean artist, graduated in Arts, with a specialization in painting at the Universidad de Chile. Master of Arts at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile.
The construction of her artworks is developed in series that explore different edges of the same idea, endowing the image, the support, or the materiality with a symbolic load in accordance with the concepts they address. In “Cuerpo presente” human nature as the center, endowed with force, without the need for context, the nude as a vehicle of transmission in art, increasing the meaning of life. The primordial without ornament. In a more recent work, the author brings us closer to the migratory phenomenon in any of its stages, departure or arrival, loss or encounter at the mercy of its circumstances with an uncertain direction, condensing this significant human experience that at its limit confronts us with fragility and strength, the complexity of the human being with the opposing forces that harbor us.
