Little Red Riding Hood Print

After studying at the University of Fine Arts in Barcelona, she started a long journey experimenting in decorative painting, preciosism and poster design resulting two decades later in paintings on black backgrounds with sober and disturbing figures. Lola Sandoval covers photographic archives of social groups she recomposes blurring all points of reference. The roles are inverted, the generations confuse, the goals are ignored and the memory value of the document disappears. From that emerge strange portraits or ambiguous group scenes, deprived from any space, time, cultural or sociological referent. The subjects then appear frozen and reduced to a setting consecrating by strangeness their peculiarity at the cost of their individuality.
