Natali Sabina Bravo-Barbee (born, Córdoba, Argentina) creates works at the boundary of photography and sculpture. Bravo-Barbee has been photographing her world since the age of fifteen, incorporating alternative processes such as cyanotype into her practice.
The artist's practice uncovers lived memories of her family's flight from Argentina while simultaneously investigating post-colonial and feminist topics. Bravo-Barbee holds an MFA from City College, CUNY and a BA, Studio Art from Hunter College, CUNY. She lives and works in Queens, New York and is on the committee of the Southeast Queens Artist Alliance (SEQAA)
Condition
“I would like to note that I created this piece in memory of JCAL's board member who recently passed away, Margaret Rose Vendryes. It is titled Margaret's Terrarium in her honor and encased in this shadow box is an 1 original (medium sized) cyanotype flower from my installation Femicide Florals, which was in one of the last shows Margaret curated for York College. This flower is surrounded by mini cyanotype florets and leaves. It is one-of-a-kind and the first time I have framed my flowers.”
