Patricia Dauder was born in Barcelona, Spain, 1973. She lives and works in Barcelona
Two main areas of experimentation are researched in the artist´s work. On one hand, her will to analize the image process of creation and typologies through different media. Secondly, the artist puts together her own works with a collection of found images that she slightly manipulates to construct a personal visual map, in an attempt to relate archive iconography with personal imagery. This approach responds to a will for contrasting “real” and “ficticious”, and a necessity to break with the physical and conceptual limitations of the conception of drawing, her main medium. According to the artist, “drawing" is the medium that I use to conceive forms, structures that do not necessarily resemble reality, it constitutes a language of invention. Photography and the moving image, are media that I use to capture fragments of the outside world, tools for the observation and analysis of reality, to suplement a personal imagery”. Moving around this duality between invention and observation Dauder creates ambiguous narratives, apparently unconnected, that show fragmented visions more than structured, closed concepts, where the forms of reality are replaced by an active space appealing the senses through a perception flow, in an attempt to favor a subtler view and a less detached gaze.
