about Marta Sánchez Luengo
Madrid, 1972
The most remarkable about her work is her scope of the human being through different realities. The study of the human figure and its context play the same role on her sculptures. The creation and use of scene is always constant on her work, and it becomes the canvas for referring about the complexity of the circumstances the human being is involved, integrating social-urban with intimate-personal life. She was graduated in Arts specialize in sculpture at Complutense University in Madrid. Since then, she has been developing her career with exhibitions in galleries, public entities and contemporary Art Fairs, both in Spain and abroad.
Her work has been awarded in a variety of national contests, underlining her monumental sculpture Project “Se hace camino al andar”. Her artistic production is in public and private collections: Lease Plan Services, E2 IN2 S.A, Museum of the Spanish National Blind Organization - ONCE, Cathedral of León Museum, the Egyptian Embassy in Madrid, or town councils of Ceutí, Majadahonda, or Las Rozas de Madrid, where recently was instaled her work “Campo de las decisiones”.
about the artist's works
In the Marta Sánchez Luengo pieces, the great protagonist is the human being observed in his different realities. In his sculptures, figure’s study and the context in which it is presented share importance. The creation and use of the scene have become a constant in his work; from there, she tells us about the complexity of the circumstances in which the human being must develop as a person, integrating social-urban life with intimate-personal life. Over time, waiting and reflection permeate the sculptural imaginary of the artist, which invites us to enter into that state of understanding, empathy and contemplation in front of her pieces. Despite the strength of the materials used such as bronze, iron or resin, Sánchez Luengo manages to give life to characters of overwhelming sensitivity with amazing subtlety.
