ArtWork Details
Sociedades Sordas Sánchez confronts a world that refuses to hear. Selûn Collective offers this limited edition giclée print as part of the Sánchez Print Collection. It comes in A2 size (42 × 59.4 cm / 16.5 × 23.4″) on Hahnemühle German Etching paper.
The title "Sociedades Sordas" translates to "Deaf Societies." Specifically, Sánchez addresses the collective numbness that allows suffering to persist unseen and unheard. Bodies fragment. Voices dissolve. The human form breaks apart under the weight of indifference. As a result, the Sociedades Sordas Sánchez print becomes both an accusation and a plea — demanding that we look at what we choose to ignore.
Furthermore, this work embodies the artist's core belief that art should hit with the intensity of a loud punk song. He wants to leave you uncomfortable and reflective. Consequently, the fragmented figures in this composition do not ask for sympathy. Instead, they demand attention. Above all, they refuse to disappear into silence.
In addition, Sánchez draws directly from the streets and social fabric of Guatemala City. He observes how societies build walls of deafness around the most vulnerable. However, his mixed-media approach tears those walls open. Period and organic elements layer into surfaces that pulse with the tension between speech and silence, visibility and erasure. The Sociedades Sordas Sánchez artwork channels this tension into visual form.
