ARTIST INFORMATION

Natalia Garcia-Lee (b. 1971, Madrid, Spain) has employed her practice to dissect the human species from biology to behavioral sciences. Her all-encompassing approach displays her visions of the literal, social, and ephemeral, mechanisms that structure the world we occupy. Throughout her series-based practice, she illuminates parallels across varying spheres of our natural and manmade worlds accentuated and approached with rigor. The weight of Garcia-Lee’s iconic and consistent use of layering – from collage to canvas – is amplified as the redactions and additions provide literal metaphors within the creation of her narrative of a timeless reality. Natalia Garcia-Lee earned her BFA in Sculpture from the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York (1995) – a curricular choice that would inform the qualities of space and dimension within her work. Since 2019, Natalia Garcia-Lee has been represented by LnS Gallery with her first solo exhibition: The Measure of Man, (April 22, 2022 – June 25, 2022). The exhibition showcased the visual exploration of mammalian behavior and cognitive reactions to both physical and societal structures, exposing the paradoxical nature of the human experience on the backing of mice experimentation.
