Guerra de la Paz
www.guerradelapaz.com

The work of Guerra de la Paz, the two artist team of Alain Guerra and Neraldo de la Paz, is based on a combination of traditional disciplines and experimentation with dimension and the use of unconventional materials. It is inspirited by an essential familiarity with the ready-made and the archeological qualities that found objects posses. The result encapsulates an energy that reveals underlying meanings and depicts the significance of mass-produced refuse on our society.

Through a common aesthetic, they create work with a universal message. Using recycled objects as their medium and the guidance of the unrelenting amounts of information that fuels today’s mass consciousness and its subversive parallels, Guerra de la Paz explore ways to reinvent historic themes and classic icons while still commenting on contemporary culture.


Teresa Diehl

Using photography, video, sculpture and installation, Teresa Diehl’s work is a hallucinatory feast for the senses. Her slow motion video installations transport the viewer into a journey where the territory becomes fragile but within this fragility resides the strength of life contemplated as a phenomenon.

All forms in Diehl’s work are highly recognizable but they have suffered an incredibly strong transformation, creating a new vocabulary from where the voice of Diehl emerges, once again, with the un-equivocal strong force of nature.
