Sofía Fernández Díaz: Y Luego Bailaron / And Then They Danced
@ Goldfinch
319 N Albany Ave, Chicago, IL 60612
Opening Saturday, November 4th, from 2PM - 5PM
On view through Saturday, December 16th
In Gallery II, Goldfinch is thrilled to present a solo exhibition by the Chicago-based artist Sofía Fernández Díaz, whose mixed-media sculptures and installations are inspired by patterns and formations seen in the natural world.
Fernández Díaz is a multidisciplinary artist from Mexico City who combines experimentation, intuition, and play to discover unexpected commonalities between disparate materials. She is inspired by naturally occurring patterns and formations in the natural world, which she recreates through use of mediums such as beeswax, fibers, glass, and natural dyes in paintings, sculptures, and installations that are sensual, immediate, and visceral.
Artist’s Bio
Sofía Fernández Díaz received the Joan Livingston scholarship and earned an MFA in Fiber and Material Studies at SAIC. After graduating, she was selected to receive a Spark grant by Chicago Artist Coalition and invited to hold a 2023 Radicle Studio Residency at Hyde Park Art Center.
