1. We met each other in 1992, at the Universidad Nacional in Heredia, Costa Rica. Since then, I have followed Cinthya's career.
2. Cinthya is part of a generation of artists who have a nomadic existence. These artists move between different physical and spiritual locations. They have a big creative potential that, with self-assurance, contributes a
mix-up to the classical ‘center/periphery' dichotomy. Cinthya has
elaborated a fresh work that picks up this condition of multiplicity,
variability, and proliferation of perspectives without classification or judging. She emphasizes the impossibility of an absolutist notion of significance and the relativism of a stable condition.
3. Periphery and center depend on the perspective as it is in the following case: someone from the so-called periphery acts from there as his/her
center becoming the so-called center, the periphery, creating the borderline of his/her epicenter, then art as a practice is placed both in center and
periphery. Further starting with the metaphor that periphery and center form a body where periphery surrounds the center, which on the other hand constitutes the inside of the outside, we realize their
interdependence.
