Diego Hernández Sancho (b. 1996. Zaragoza, Spain) is a multidisciplinary artist working primarily with photography, time-based media, installation and found objects. He lives and works in London, UK.
His work engages with the concept of time and a psychoanalytic understanding of nostalgia. Through photography, his practice considers the limitations of photographic language and the inadequacy of language itself as modes of representation. In doing so, it reflects on subjectivity, transience, and the unstable relation between image and reality.
Interested in the elasticity of time and memory, he conceives photography as a speculative apparatus imbued with paranormal qualities, examining the unstable boundary between representation and the supernatural. Drawing on the ghostly logic of horror fiction, his practice explores how images suspend, distort, and rupture ordinary reality through their emotional dimension.
Heavily influenced by filmmaking and montage techniques, Diego’s work constructs meaning through the recombination of images and media, trusting interpretation to emerge from the tension and interaction between discordant elements.
In 2022, he founded PANG! Projects, an itinerant platform for contemporary creatives, based primarily between London and Barcelona.
