Bogot\u00e1, Colombia, 1982
Sebasti\u00e1n Camacho works in oil paint, watercolor, paper cutout, and graphite\u2014a breadth of media that enables him to interrogate the relationship between images and their supports. One of his primary interests is the specific moment when an artistic event takes place. From the moment of the work\u2019s production through its reception, Camacho finds situations that can be narrated and described, but rarely predicted. For that reason, he chooses to work with legible images that do not bear grand narratives, images before which we have the space to ask ourselves what it is that we are seeing. Sebast\u00edan studied art at the Universidad de los Andes in Bogot\u00e1 and media and technology in pictorial production at the Universidad Nacional de las Artes in Buenos Aires.
