Joaquín Sánchez
Bio
Born in Paraguay in 1977. He has been living in Bolivia for more than 20 years. He tells story through photography, sculpture, video, performance and cinema, through an alternate artistic view that never stops.
He always starts his work from an image, even though the image might be a word.
During his childhood he worked as an assistant in his grandfather's traveling cinema, which traveled through Paraguay's rural comunities. Since then, he has a strong connection with the moving pictures. He is in interested in family chronicles, personal memory and small tales that migrate to collective narrations.
