A course by Jacinta Besa González
Jacinta Besa is a Chilean visual artist with more than a decade of experience working Plasticine. For her, this material proves to be a versatile tool that works as a volumetric pigment that can be spread, layered, used for reliefs, melted, and solidified.
Her work is extremely varied. Some pieces are two-dimensional and completely made of Plasticine, others use a transparency as a support to project the shadow of the piece onto the wall, and some even combine photography with Plasticine.
She also develops installations with objects that are previously submerged in melted plasticine, and these pieces have been exhibited in galleries, cultural centers, biennials, museums, and fairs in Chile and abroad.
