Matías Sánchez

Ni Mas Ni Menos (Neither More Nor Less) 沒多沒少

2020

"Ni Mas Ni Menos (Neither More Nor Less) 沒多沒少" by Matías Sánchez is an oil on linen painting that bridges linguistic and cultural perspectives through its bilingual title, pairing Spanish and Chinese phrases with identical meanings. The work's medium of oil on linen suggests a commitment to traditional painting techniques while engaging with contemporary themes of equivalence and translation. The title's philosophical undertone invites viewers to consider concepts of balance, sufficiency, and the relationship between different languages and cultures in conveying meaning.
