Fine Art nominee

Flores de mi jardín born in March 2020 during the quarantine period. I felt really lucky to have all these beautiful flowers in my garden, it was bliss to stare at them and see how they would open during the day and close at night. When producing this series, I wanted to capture that movement, the most meaningful essence of life.

Sandra Platas Hernández is a Spanish based fine art photographer. She was born and raised in
Madrid, but obtained her Bachelor’s Degree in Photography in Edinburgh, Scotland. Sandra lived
there for nearly ten years where she did not only grow as an artist but also as a person. She had
traveled to multiple countries, where she had the opportunity to develop her style through her life
experiences and travels.


From an early age, she has been interested in arts in general, from ceramic and crafting to
painting and photography. Soon, she became obsessed with beauty. She only wants to show,
create and find beauty everywhere and in anyone. But at the same time, life and death are also
present in her work. Creating situations was and still is what she enjoys the most. Her work stands
out for her ability to subvert the ordinary to a beautiful and unique.
