STATEMENT

​

I feel a strong connection with nature, it is the source of my creative energy.

The focus of my work is the invisible thread that connects all forms of life and how we depend on each other.

Anick Fernandez is a visual artist and printmaker, born in Mexico City. She has lived in Mexico, Canada and Spain and is now based in Whitehorse, Yukon.

​

Despite being trained as an architect, Anick's true passion lies in art, which she pursued first as a painter and sculptor. However, after attending a monotype workshop at l'Atelier de l'Ile in Val-David, Quebec, she turned to printmaking.

​

While living in Spain, Anick learned etching and aquatint at the Circle of Fine Arts in Madrid and at the Spanish Association of Painters and Sculptors.

Concerned about the toxicity of the products used in the process, she began experimenting with collagraphy, a non-toxic printmaking technique.

​

From 2013 to 2019 she ran a studio where she  taught collagraphy and combined 

her own practice with it.

​

Her work has been recognized with several awards including First Prize- I Mini Print International in Cantabria, Spain. She has participated in exhibitions in Spain, France, Portugal, Poland, Canada and Mexico.

​

Her work is also included in the permanent collection of the Faro Cabo Mayor Art Center in Santander, Spain.
