Just as in petroglyphs, through her practice Paulina uncovers subjects of landscape as containers of meaning, drawing questions about placehood and personhood while gradually reconsidering and revisiting ecosystems. Moncada works across painting, sculpture, and installation to portray fragile and inconspicuous encounters between human and non-human life. Her roots are planted in the entangled Andean Tropics, a place where absence and presence become signs of possibility. Tropical nature enters Paulina’s practice
as a language of reciprocity, correspondence and reverberation. Through speculation about the function of the artistic object she invites the viewer to preserve mysteries instead of solving them.
