Ximena Garrido-Lecca
Ximena Garrido-Lecca
(Lima, 1980) In her body of work, Ximena Garrido-Lecca examines Peru’s troubled history and explores the cultural impact that has resulted from colonial standards in the wake of globalization processes. The artist observes urban, rural or natural architecture and dwells on spaces where a negotiating materiality between the specific and the universal is visible. The artist takes as a starting point forms of making, organizing and communicating present in current Peruvian culture and executes strategies of appropriation, modification and assembly to question our relationship with the transformation in the specificity of the landscape.
