Patricia Corredor

Patricia Corredor’s modern metal sculptures are a bridge between abstraction and figuration, concept and expression. She is interested in using symbols of nature as a resource in her original artworks with themes inspired by experiences from the environment, images, objects that evoke memories, and societal influences.

Corredor was born in 1960 in Bogotá. Studying arts at Los Andes University in Bogotá, Corredor felt attracted to explore works in three-dimensional mediums. Influences for Corredor’s work include realism, and artists such as Brancusi, Caro, Oldenburg, and Eduardo Ramirez Villamizar, among others. Corredor’s artworks have been exhibited in galleries, public spaces, and museums worldwide, including The Museum of Modern Art in Bogotá, The International Sculpture Competition, and the National Ceramic Event in Bogotá, Artspace Warehouse Los Angeles, and the CSE public art exhibition in Chicago, USA.

Patricia Corredor’s modern metal sculptures are a bridge between abstraction and figuration, concept and expression. She is interested in using symbols of nature as a resource in her original artworks with themes inspired by experiences from the environment, images, objects that evoke memories, and societal influences. Patricia Corredor imagines her work “as if the figures and images had the necessity to feel the air, experience climatic changes, and contribute to the landscape in a public space.”

Picturing her large-scale sculptural work in open spaces, Corredor develops themes that have a deep relationship with their natural environment. She aims to pose didactic and constructive messages to the observer, bringing awareness to issues of climate change, specifically how it relates to the extinction of species of Colombia’s rich flora and fauna. Corredor sees the preservation of nature as a communal responsibility and transmits this message through her art.

Corredor was born in 1960 in Bogotá. Studying arts at Los Andes University in Bogotá, Corredor felt attracted to exploring works in three-dimensional mediums. Influences for Corredor’s work include magical realism, and artists such as Brancusi, Caro, Oldenburg, and Eduardo Ramirez Villamizar, among others.

Distinctively modern in her process, Corredor creates drawings that she translates with precision laser cutting techniques on steel, aluminum, or iron into original sculptures. She then finishes the artworks with layers of electrostatic paint and anticorrosion treatments which give Corredor’s artworks a distinctive bright matte finish.

Corredor’s artworks have been exhibited in galleries, public spaces, and museums worldwide, including The Museum of Modern Art in Bogotá, The International Sculpture Competition, the National Ceramic Event in Bogotá, Artspace Warehouse Los Angeles, and the CSE public art exhibition in Chicago, USA.
