Statement
Rita Fernández (b. 1999), is a Mexican artist graduated from the Royal College of Art (MA: Painting). She has a BA in Philosophy from Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México and a background in the film industry.
Her work is an exploration of self-portraiture and its limits. Through the dissection of personal experiences and striking images gathered from memories, dreams and the daily life, her work is a constant inquiry about the self and what constitutes an identity. Fernández likes to consider her practice as a matrix of self-reflection and representation. Her philosophical formation plays an important role in the way she conceives and approaches the creation of her artwork.
