Mariela Sancari (1976, Buenos Aires, Argentina). She lives and works between Barcelona and Mexico City. Self-taught artist who reclaims practice and thought outside the hegemonic circuits of validation and training.
Her work revolves around truthfulness and fiction in images, using personal narratives to explore the boundaries of the scope of photography as a means of representation. It refers to the affective dimension, yet not sentimental, of autobiographical work, as well as formal explorations of the medium, through questions related to staging and self-referentiality in photographic practice.
