SOFIA FERNANDES

About

I am a graduate of Falmouth University and am continuing to pursue a mark-making, material based practice, which constantly embodies the landscape and plays with unpredictability. Taking from the ridges and materials that surround us to recreate the ongoing forces of nature.

Twisted figure-like forms, floating objects, and a random array of words, generate shifting contingent narratives in my work. Through an exploration of language, material, and chance, I create my own opaque landscape/world.
