Tunel I, 2017, graphite, sanguine, and wax on folded paper
In photos, the work looks like it was done in a sketch book. Actually, many of the images are quite large. The impact of their size is strong, and the images resonate strongly. Vásquez de la Horra makes you stop and think and look closer. This is really delicious work. Keith Widyolar, February 20, 2018 Read more at newyorklatinculture.com

Sandra Vásquez de la Horra beschichtet das Papier, auf dem sie arbeitet, mit Wachs. Da- durch erhält der Strich eine Tiefenschärfe. Der sanfte Glanz der Oberfläche schafft einen Hauch von Resonanz. Die Wachsbeschichtung ist, vergleichbar mit der Qualität eines Papiers, Teil des zeichnerischen Prozesses. Der Strich von Sandra Vásquez de la Horra ist weich und bestimmt. Er besitzt im unterschiedlich artikulierten Strichfeld eine Tonalität, die einen Klangraum evoziert.

La condition humaine selon Sandra Vásquez de la Horra published at Sandra Vásquez de la Horra, Hatje Cantz Verlag
Paz Guevara
Sandra Vásquez de la Horra appropriates popular iconographies and expressions through processes of compilation, association, and hybridization, creating drawings where figures, scenes, and allegories from dissimilar times are twisted in a contemporary mythology and personal alphabet. With graphite, the artist draws over different recycled paper types and dips them in wax, as inscriptions traversed by multiple layers in the manner of a palimpsest.
Lóránd Hegyi
SUBVERSIVE INTENSITY OF THE IMAGE NARRATIVES OF LIBERATED FANTASY Sandra Vásquez de la Horra’s drawings are alarming and frightening, barbaric and exotic, obtrusive and seductively corporeal, enigmatic, hallucinative and ghostly. They appear alien and at the same time very familiar, like a remembered experience, as intimate as if they somehow originated from our own world, our own life.
