Artist's Statement
"I explore the concept of duality or
unity of opposites as it defines the existence of a
situation depending on the co-existence of the
opposite. I stretch this fluid concept by focusing
on either opposite while considering both as a
possibility at the same time. As in quantum physics,
an object could be a wave or a particle depending on
the act of observation, thus basically the object's
identity includes both although it switches its
"appearance" depending on how is measured and
observed. Within this metaphysical parameter, I
explore the concepts of the permanent and the
temporal, the everlasting and the ephemeral, the
real and the virtual and the perceived social
interaction and the existential isolation of our
times, as it applies to our daily life as well as in
a more abstract and conceptual way. In a
post-minimalist vocabulary, my works visually
synthesize image, form and trace process. These
works reveal their identity as explorations of
surface, material and texture as a means to suggest
the contrast between a bleak background against
crowded "objects" to evoke the sense of
separate-ness between our intense inner life and the
emptiness of our surroundings."
A proud recipient of
2018 Connecticut Artist Fellowship, Carolina
Guimarey was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where
she studied sculpture, drawing, painting and
photography with prestigious artists and filmmaking
at Escuela de Cine de Avellaneda and Universidad
Tecnologica National in Buenos Aires, Argentina. She
now lives in Connecticut where she continued her art
education at University of Connecticut and
Silvermine School of Arts. Since 1998 she has
exhibited her work in several states, in art
galleries, museums and cultural centers. She has
participated in several juried shows and many of her
works are in private collections in several
countries such as USA, Italy and Spain.
