"In this environment we are living there are many things that put me in tension. We do not react to the social disgrace, or to fatal evidences like that we are literally annihilating the planet (...) That makes me think about how human consciousness works. How image manages to transcend today, being in the era of technology and fake news. Something complicated because we act as if everything that happens around us is a fiction movie, and it is not."
Amparo Sard uses the sensitivity to detect and create tension in her art works. Sard also finds the tension in contemporary human behavior. Behaviors that are not as “it should be”. Sard is an artist deeply involved in social activism.
"Piercing help me to connect everything, breaking the old idea of the image but also a representation of this going trough inside, and hint at its most sinister meaning. To create tension there has to be an initial image, the one that reminds us how it should be, projected by our memory; and a final image, presented to us in the artwork."
