Yamila Plaza

.Her artistic practice explores the weave (trama) as a visual language and a way of understanding connection. Through the accumulation of lines, layers, gestures and textures, she constructs intricate pictorial structures that evoke organic systems found in nature and the human body, such as roots, branches, veins and interconnected networks.

Her current work investigates the relationships between life, memory and interdependence. Drawing inspiration from the interconnected systems of nature, she explores the idea that existence is not isolated, but shaped by an ongoing network of relationships. Repetition, layering and the interplay of lines become fundamental elements in her process, giving rise to complex surfaces that balance structure, movement and spontaneity.

She studied drawing and painting at the Escuela de Artes Plásticas Cristóbal Rojas (Caracas), and further developed her practice through artist studios and critique programs in Venezuela and Argentina, including workshops with Maruja Herrera, Sandra Doherty (Taller Aike), Nana Schlez, and Paola Vega.

She also studied Social Communication before choosing to leave that path to dedicate herself fully to art. Her background includes a professional career in fashion design developed between Venezuela and Spain.
