Emotional Mappings

Verónica Uribe

Veronica, who lives and works in Bogota, Colombia has shown her works in various solo and group exhibitions around the world including Australia, Canada, Colombia, New York, and Spain. She contributes three new series of works for her first show in Washington, D.C. In these paintings she explores “emotional mappings.” Moments of emotional transit can be mapped, they can be placed on a surface to be retraced and found on a time and spatial plane. They act as geographical locations and points where both the roughness and the easiness of landscapes can be metaphors of emotional situations.
