Among her repertoire of motifs are folk religions, superstition, fairy tales, and memories of the Pinochet dictatorship, and she combines Latin American with European traditions. The final, unusual step in her method is to dip the drawings in melted beeswax, so that they are covered by a yellowish-brown film, lending them the ultimate form so characteristic for her work. After undergoing this procedure, the drawings appear transparent and oddly timeless—an aesthetic that reinforces the surreal content of the pictures. Vasquez de la Horra’s works can be found in prominent collections, such as the Centre George Pompidou in Paris, the Morgan Library in New York, and the museum kunst palast in Düsseldorf.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003eExhibition schedule: Nolan Judin, Berlin, April 30–July 5, 2010 | Bonnefantenmuseum, Maastricht, July 10–October 24, 2010 | And further venues\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874799022344,"sku":"9783775726559","price":39.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775726559_8eccd991-c3e0-4f69-8423-d4ba84636ee3.jpg?v=1744133383","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16441-sandra-vsquez-de-la-horra","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
