SANDRA MACK-VALENCIA
Sandra Mack-Valencia grew up in Colombia, where under the smell of oil paint, turpentine, and linseed oil in her father’s studio, she developed a passion for the arts, particularly painting and drawing. When she turned 16, her gift was the registration at the Escuela de Arte Eladio Velez, a local art school in Sandra’s neighborhood. After receiving her BFA from the Universidad de Antioquia, she moved to New York and finished her MFA at Hunter College.
Sandra Mack-Valencia is a Colombian painter who lives and works in New York. Sandra nurtures her work from many sources: found images, book remarks, experiences, movies, fashion, etc. She combines photo transfer with drawing and painting. Photography references reality and memory while drawing and painting allow her to respond intuitively to the materials and the process. Sandra’s work has been exhibited in museums such as El Museo del Barrio, the Coney Island Museum in New York, the Museum of Modern Art, and the MAJA Museum in Medellín. Sandra’s paintings have traveled to Colombia, Amsterdam, Japan, and Italy, where she was part of a public space project through OffSite/ArtBridge. She is a recipient of the Nathalie Angles Award and the Sommerville Arts Prize. Her work was selected as part of the (S) Files Biennial at El Museo del Barrio in New York. She was chosen as one of the Outstanding Antioqueños in the World, and her art practice was featured in a documentary that aired in her native city. Sandra’s paintings are in private, public, and corporate collections, including the Hotel Monaco, Dunn Development Corporation, the Renaissance Hotel, and The Kimpton Hotel in Amsterdam.
