Alba Cl

I am a Spanish visual artist born in Asturias and currently based in Oviedo. I grew up in a former mining area, an environment shaped by strong contrasts, which has deeply influenced my sensitivity to color, material, and emotional expression.
I work primarily with acrylic on canvas, although my practice naturally extends to different surfaces and mixed media. I often incorporate elements such as banknote cuttings, paper, and gold leaf, creating layered surfaces rich in texture and symbolism. These materials act as fragments of value, memory, and transformation, integrated into the painted space.
My work is rooted in a contemporary and fantastical visual language, characterized by vibrant colors, dynamic compositions, and an atmospheric, dreamlike quality. I am interested in creating open images where reality and imagination coexist, allowing space for multiple interpretations rather than fixed narratives.
Art has been a form of escape and creative freedom for me since childhood. Through painting, I seek to translate emotional experience into visual form, inviting the viewer to connect intuitively and engage in a moment of contemplation.
