This hand printed etching print was made by Sydney based Chilean born artist Christina Cordero. Cordero uses multiple plates and printmaking techniques, and often incorporates hand drawn and painted elements.
“The images in my work are both, allusive and elusive. They reflect a diversity of cultural experiences and combine the real and the surreal, the personal and the collective, the serious and the whimsical…… Underlying all this, there is a strong connection to music (very specially Mozart), and the wish to discover the ‘new’, the ‘surreal’, ‘the unknown’. . . . .
“I like to listen to the whispers of the night,
to the music and the poems floating in the sky,
to the voices from within,
to the cries and the dreams buried in the sand,
to the songs falling from the clouds.”
-Christina Cordero
