Teresita Fernández - Profile |

Among the sculptures on view will be a ten-foot, shiny black mirror lying in what appears to be a bed of snow. This work considers landscape and the picturesque by placing the viewer in a shadowy reflection. The black glass is not a true mirror in that the reflections are duller, devoid of color and appear to be deeply set in an ink-like field, producing a darkly gorgeous, hypnotic effect. In a new series of wall pieces, works are comprised of thousands of small convex glass mirrors and polished black onyx cabochons. A large rectangle resembling a projection screen is composed of onyx, while other works combine glass mirrors and polished black onyx to create reflections of both light and shadow. Among these works, both dark and light reflective surfaces create portraits of extreme opposites. Referencing Baroque-era ceiling painting and illusionistic space, one large artwork, made in conjunction with the Graphicstudio in Tampa, Florida, hangs suspended above the viewer's head. The image created takes on an organic form not unlike an immense, cascading tree branch that is comprised of layers of precision-cut, highly polished metal. These components are woven into a reflective and intricate lattice, up through which the viewer may look. Fernández is the youngest artist commissioned by the Seattle Art Museum for the recently opened Olympic Sculpture Park, where her work Seattle Cloud Cover allows visitors to walk through a covered skyway while viewing the city's skyline through tiny holes in multicolored glass. She is the recipient of numerous awards and was commissioned for a special project by the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 2000. She has had solo exhibitions at the Fabric Workshop and Museum in Philadelphia; SITE Santa Fe in New Mexico; the Institute of Contemporary Art in Philadelphia; the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, D.C.; the Castello di Rivoli in Turin, Italy; and most recently, at the Centro de Arte Contemporaneo de Malaga in Spain.
