Description
Karla Herencia’s work addresses environmental degradation, inspired by the coastal landscapes of Puntarenas. She collects discarded plastic and industrial debris, inspiring paintings, sculptures and mixed-media installations that reflect on the complex relationship between human invention and nature.
Influenced by the shifting oceanic and tectonic dynamics of her environment, Herencia explores themes of the body, territory, and environmental crisis.
Herencia’s Peruvian heritage influences her sensitivity to primitive materials and ritualistic aesthetics. Her installations combine socio-political critique with emotional responses to environmental issues.
“Encarnar 1”, is a thought-provoking polymer marine sculpture that depicts beach-found materials. This assemblage evokes a nautical feel while encouraging reflection on the relationship between nature and human impact. The layering of textures and forms in this marine sculpture invites viewers to engage with environmental themes, highlighting the beauty and fragility of coastal ecosystems in the face of environmental challenges.
