Bio	Clarice Sanvicente is an artist originally from Sao Paulo, Brazil but currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. Her background is an advertising and photography and her work is greatly influenced by photography, both in the framing and freezing. She uses photography as an instrument to capture an image that’s faithful to its space and time. At the same time, the use of black and white creates a distance from reality, creating ambiguity with the imaginary and nostalgic aspect of the object. “Her paintings are about time. A time based on reality and every day life, but evokes nostalgy. As if she were painting the memory of things. Her early sculptural paintings present and represent objects that have been forgotten. Fragments of a place , a house, an empty space. They’re visual simulations. They emanate a silent temporality.” (excerpt by Jurandy Valenca)
Country of residence	United States (US)
