ARTIST BIO
Graciana’s work focuses on the idea of transformation through time. Her photography tries to capture the constant changes occurring to objects and living things but remain unnoticed to the naked eye. The effect that chance has during the artistic process (in the form of small accidents which are out of her control) is also very important in her work.
Graciana’s beginnings in art were as a painter and later she turned to photography. She has experimented with several alternative processes including Tricolor Gum Bichromate, Cyanotype, Ziatype, Lumens, Chlorophyll Prints, among others. By specializing in gum bichromate printing (a technique she learned studying with Diana Bloomfield), she has found the possibility to express herself pictorially.
Essential to her creative process is the possibility to be able to work with her hands and, at the same time, create unrepeatable copies, influencing the printing process through the choice of different types of papers, pigments, and the color palette she chooses.
Graciana believes that gum bichromate is maybe the alternative processes where more evidence of the artist’s traces can be discovered, by way of his or her brushstroke and gestures, as the process gives the artist a unique opportunity to work by adding layer after layer to the print and to slowly build the image, by letting it grow over time and with patience.
Her work has been exhibited in her home country Argentina, in Europe and in the United States.
