Glenda León
Glenda León’s exhibition ‘Cosmic Trace’ at Ok Linz, Austria
"Like magic, art is an act of transformation, which sometimes means simply creating coincidences."
Glenda León
The OK Linz is showing the first solo exhibition and major retrospective of the work of the Cuban artist Glenda León in the German-speaking region.
Glenda León works in drawing, video, installation, sculpture/object and photography. Whether with hair, flowers, cassettes or records, text or sound, her works are a constant evocation of human existence, its hopes and fears, its excesses and emptiness, its insecurity and transcendence.
The artist is interested in the spaces between the visible and the invisible, between sound and silence, between the ephemeral and the eternal.
Glenda León’s works continually challenge our perception of the world by making natural laws visible, demanding the act of listening and pausing, or addressing the divine dimension of being human. The renunciation of everything superfluous and the fusion of natural and artificial elements testify to the artist’s preference for processes.
