Monica Aissa Martinez is a visual artist whose drawings, paintings and mixed media work are based in human anatomy and physiology.
“I consider the body a biological statement that includes intricate structure and complex diversity. The body is a narrative, a holder of experiences: private, public and social.
Here, I am artist exploring human brain. I am at the bottom of the top. Behind the eyeballs, I follow cranial nerves 1 and 2, moving center to locate the optic chiasm.And I include medulla oblongata below, where spirit enters body in the form of breath.”
