Lizi Sánchez

Lizi Sánchez was born in 1975 in Lima (Peru), and now lives and works in London. She is interested in the communicative power of language. Fracture of various communication systems and codes is a preoccupation in her work. Sánchez is interested in how different processes, contexts and intentions transform the use and meaning of language. She frequently uses material supports from the everyday environment that attract her both for their connotations and their qualities; thus brightness, malleability, translucency, or lightness become an integral part of her work. Sánchez has exhibited in various public and private institutions such as Whitechapel Gallery, Studio Voltaire, Drawing Room London, Walker Art Gallery, Sculpture in the City, Oriel Davies Gallery, ICPNA, among others. Her work appears in 'Remains-Tomorrow: Themes in Contemporary Latin American Abstraction', edited by Cecilia Fajardo Hill (Hatje Cantz, Dec 2022).
