Cynthia Saenz Sancho
Cynthia Saenz Sancho is a contemporary Costa Rican artist, whose artistic journey has been characterized by a series of deliberate and enriching steps that have shaped her distinctive style. Born with a passion for creativity, Cynthia embarked on her artistic odyssey at the Esempi Art School under the guidance of teacher Francisco Alvarado. This early foundation set the stage for her pursuit of excellence in the realm of visual arts.
Her academic endeavors continued as she delved into Advertising Design at Veritas University, where she honed her skills and expanded her artistic horizons. During this period, Cynthia actively participated in chalk pastel workshops led by the esteemed artist Jim Theologos, further refining her techniques and contributing to the evolution of her unique artistic voice.
Cynthia's artistic repertoire extends beyond traditional mediums, as she engaged in free engraving and sculpture courses, showcasing her commitment to exploring diverse avenues of expression. This multi-faceted approach laid the groundwork for her later involvement in international sculpture symposiums and biennials dedicated to contemporary arts and visuals.
In the mesmerizing tapestry of Cynthia's works, observers encounter a rich interplay of surreal, mysterious, poetic, and narrative elements. Her pieces bear the unmistakable stamp of originality, with a characteristic style heightened by her profound passion for horses. The equestrian world, with all its facets, serves as a thematic anchor in her creations.
Cynthia's artistic vision manifests in a world populated by chimeras, where women, horses, and horns intertwine to convey profound messages. These elements serve as metaphors for power and weakness, becoming focal points that underscore her personal growth and evolution as an artist. Her works exude a sense of strength and vulnerability, inviting viewers to ponder the intricate balance between these contrasting forces.
The impact of Cynthia's art extends far beyond the confines of her studio, as her works find homes in private collections around the world. Additionally, her artistic footprint can be traced in public art projects spanning diverse countries, including Costa Rica, Canada, France, the United States, Switzerland, Argentina, Turkey, Australia, Guatemala, Panama, and Russia. Through her creations, Cynthia Saenz Sancho invites the world to join her on a visual journey where imagination knows no bounds, and the language of art speaks universally.
