HONDARTZA FRAGA
(b.1982 A Coruña, Spain)

Hondartza Fraga works in a range of mediums including drawing, photography, animation and video. Her work is an ongoing exploration of the different distances between ourselves and everything else: spatial, temporal, emotional, cultural and imagined. Fascinated by extreme environments, from deep sea to deep space, and explores our relationship with these places.

Her work often explores the relationship between artistic and scientific processes and how scientific discoveries are represented and communicated via imagery that aids in attributing meaning.

She is currently doing a practice-led PhD at the University of Leeds. Her research centres around making a new body of work using the archive of raw images from the space-research Cassini mission to explore the similarities and differences between drawing and new technologies.
