ALEJANDRO SANCHEZ
Graduated with honors in Bogotá as a Master of Visual Arts in 2009 and three years later, in 2012, he finished his postgraduate studies in media and technologies for pictorial production at the National University of the Arts in Buenos Aires / Argentina.
Alejandro investigates social changes in Latin American countries, especially Colombia. For this, it determines the causes; such as globalization, democratization and economic growth, which produce these alterations in social structures. Then it examines the factors that drive the development of this change, such as free trade, privatizations and multinationals. And finally, through his artistic production, he reflects on the consequences that social changes can bring, which is why we find themes in his work such as sociocultural displacement and cultural uprooting.
