Sabrina Fernández Casas

Let us burn all that’s left

Sabrina Fernández Casas works with oral, migration and post-industrial narratives.  She plays with the ways in which the narratives circulate and are diffused, borrowing from the systems used for her works and publications. 
   For her exhibition at the Ferme de la Chapelle, she takes the story of her mother’s migration as her starting point.  Her mother worked for a metallurgical factory in Vallorbe which the artist  associates with the intensive exploitation of nature through massive plantation of invasive species which occurred in her home region of Galicia.
   Using a video installation, ceramic and recycled metal objects, engravings and prints, the artist creates a story in which the art of producing at a slower pace finds its meaning.  This is a critical and poetic project based on struggles for the regeneration and recovery of forest landscape as a shared space and as cultural heritage.
