Project Description
Marisol Sanchez
1966, Linares, Spain
For as long as I can remember, I have always had a pencil or something to draw in my hand. I draw for myself, for fun, as a diary, as a challenge. The goal is to express myself in some way.
I have a degree in art since 1990. I studied at the Polytechnic University of Valencia, Spain, and I am specialized in drawing.
When I was very young, I started going to different drawing and painting academies, and then when I got to university, I fell in love with drawing and got specialized in it.
I was interested in design and cinema, so when I finished university, I got a one year’s scholarship to do shoe design, and I learned for 2 years “Visual techniques, photography, video and tv. I also spent a couple of summers studying Aesthetics of cinematography.
I worked as an assistant director and art director on small theater and short film projects, while continuing with my drawings. I participated in several group and solo exhibitions, and after all that activity I took a break.
In 2015 I moved to Denmark. Everything is new: language, customs, people, colors, light. I´m fascinated by the changes of nature in the different seasons. My work now focuses on that: the plants, the birds, the forest, and the little treasures (leaves, leaves of leaves, flowers, branches, stones, shells) that I find on my walks.
Currently I combine my projects and workshops with artistic teaching, both face-to-face and online.
