Descripción de la Exposición
The work of Analia Saban continually expands the possibilities of how paintings, sculptures and even everyday objects are made.
Through tactile manipulations of material and composition, Saban transforms straightforward things—copper, linen thread, acrylic paint, paper, printing ink—into complex layered networks of information that consider the entwined relationship between art, culture and daily experience. In her newest body of work, Saban delves into the increasingly porous line between our physical and virtual worlds, made ever more palpable by the further expansion of digital life in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
“My way of coping with technology is to learn as much as I can about it.” –Analia Saban
The exhibition’s title borrows from the basic computer function to “Save As,” which prompts users to save a file as a new format—a small, albeit fundamental, alteration. Throughout the exhibition, similar transformative processes take place that illustrate Saban’s continued exploration of the analog-digital divide and emphasize the extent to which computerization shapes our lives.
