Pedacito de Tierra
Pedacito de Tierra opens up new ways of thinking about rest: how we value rest, pleasure and self-compassion, without guilt or apology. Luisa Niño reflects on these concepts during her residency at Legados and interweaves them with her migratory journey.
Opening: Friday, October 11, 6.30pm. We look forward to seeing you there.
Luisa Fernanda Nino (b. Mexique, 1973)
Visual Artist
Starting from drawing as her main practice, Luisa Fernanda's work arises from the imagination,
combining female characters and genderless figures that wander among imposing gardens.
Inspired by cinema, the works of old masters and found photographs, Luisa Fernanda creates
expressive narratives pushing the characters' emotions to reach the viewer.
Luisa Fernanda's work aims to invoke feelings of calm, slowness and wonder, leaving viewers
longing to live in the improbable landscapes and songs invented within her drawings.
Luisa Fernanda maintains an everyday drawing practice and works mainly with watercolours, oil
pastels and oils.
