Lucia Madriz
In her geometric paintings on wood panel, Madriz employs the Fibonacci numbers to illustrate, in simplified form, the pattern of natural plant growth—beginning from a single stem, and growing exponentially, rationally, and efficiently outward from there. Tinting the underlying wood but not covering it, Madriz’s delicate cubes seem to hover on the surface of the warm wood surfaces, drawing more attention to the grain and its own natural pattern. Always drawing the attention back to the natural world, Madriz’s multimedia works aim to reassert the natural, and our own links to it.
Born in Costa Rica and living in Germany, artist Lucía Madriz has a global perspective. Her videos, paintings, and installation works deal with issues of global concern—specifically agriculture, genetically modified crops, and the sustainability of our shared natural resources. Her interest in these issues has led her, in recent years, to develop installation projects where images are formed out of careful arrangements of seeds, grains, and dried beans—crops that sustain life in most of the globe’s cultures, and ones that are heavily implicated in the United State’s experiments with genetic modification.
