-are you ok?

This is a series of prints inspired on the "Are you Ok?“series, where I used the bandaids in diverse landscape pattern ways on a carved linoleum. Some parts of these prints have reapeated patterns of fingerprints of people I know that I magnyfied and distributed them throughout the prints.




Gabriela Alva uses everyday material to create what almost appear to be dancing,wall appendages. She shares the joy of discovery of the mundane materials that we may see, take for granted, but not discover.
Her approach combines color, texture and material to comment on contemporary social mores.”
