soledad alt

The work of Soledad Alt is a plastic projection of her thoughts, ideas and emotions.
Her production is constructed with elements that derive from the narrative and from the psychological automatism. Her work includes watercolors, inks, pieces in mixed techniques and collage inspired by daily and domestic situations that under a playful approach propose to reflect on the concept of beauty, the sublime and the abject or different.
Her visual language focuses on human relations, both privately and in public activity, where violence and domination are intertwined with surreal elements from the imaginary of the artist, the dream and the unconscious. Fundamentally figurative, and with the use of color as a predominant element, the pictorial work of Soledad Alt stands as a group of small fragments of realities loaded with urban themes from the daily life of our society. She is currently developing work under the technique of ceramics and the technique of embroidery.
