SANDRA C. FERNANDEZ Enduring Presence: Migration, Memory, and Becoming
March 31 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Sandra C. Fernandez explores migration as an emotional and transformative experience. She constructs collaged dress-forms from fragmented portraits of Latina women who have migrated to Austin, interwoven with handwritten fragments that evoke experience. Using lithography, monotype, and stitching, these elements are printed, reprinted, layered, and sewn back together as unique impressions. Through acts of assembly and mend-ing, the dresses hold memory, labor, and presence —not to restore what once was, but to acknowledge what has been lived and allow continuation. They reflect a state of becoming, shaped by possibility, dignity, and hope.
Fernandez and Flatbed Press have pledged that a portion of the sales will be donated to Posada Esperanza of Casa Marianella, a family shelter for women and children.
This project is supported in part by the City of Austin Office of Arts, Culture, Music, and Entertainment.
