Intersticio is very pleased to present Given Time, Marina G. Guerreiro first solo exhibition with the gallery and in the UK. Thanks to the generous support of the Cultural Office of the Embassy of Spain in London.
Marina González Guerreiro (A Guarda, Spain, 1992) explores her practice through an installative approximation to different mediums like sculpture, video, photography or painting, the artist revises te iconographic imaginary around the idea of happiness, putting special attention to the phenomenons related with the emotions and the management of stress as well as the construction of an idealized nature. Her creative process starts with the accumulation of materials, becoming the studio a space for trial, where objects and images from the most diverse origins live together stating a ritual of the intimate. In her work we sense a preciosity constructed through precarious and old materials, as well as the research of equilibrium between order and disorder, control and chance, reason and emotion.
The artist is graduated in Fine Arts by the University of Salamanca (Spain) and has also a Master in Artistic Production by the Universitat Politècnica of Valencia (Spain). Some of her most recent solo shows include: Una Promesa at Galería Rosa Santos (Valencia, Spain, 2020), LMXJVSD at Pols (Valencia, Spain, 2020), Work Hard, Dream Big (Internet Moon Gallery, 2019), Luchar, creer at Galería Adora Calvo (Salamanca, Spain, 2018).
