San José
Studio Visit: Carlos Fernández
Independent of location and thanks to a world surrounded by constant inspiration, Fernandez has no reason to separate his daily life from art. He always finds little pieces of the puzzle that then fit into the big picture and give rise to new projects.
ThoughtsThoughts
This close relationship between art and daily life has kept Carlos firm in his conviction to portray nature on a canvas that can be constantly repainted, in his agronomy classes or any other process that permit interaction.
His unwavering conviction to be surrounded by art has led Carlos to join forces with Sergio Rojas Chaves to create Réunion, a new independent art space in San José, seeking to explore new artistic models and curatorial practices in the context of Central American art.
