PEEKABOO







incredible work by Cecilia Paredes, a Peruvian artist who disappears into colourful backdrops often depicting elements of nature, both fading and coming to the forefront of her images.

"The photography of Paredes constitutes and attempts to demonstrate that the body of the women – her own body – is a sacred zone, not profane, to restore its perception as something miraculous amidst the technological chaos that currently surrounds us [...] Paredes is interested in using art to explore the boundaries of nature. As a photographer, she often uses her own body as a medium for presenting a dialog between the spirit and the natural world." (latinamericanart.com)
