She with a palette and a method in constant evolution. Oliva enjoys experimenting and challenging new forms of expression through technique, each piece reflects a subjective and emotional personal moment due to emotions or connection in her past or present memories, capturing it in an abstract way. The color and the ascending stroke loaded with pigment are his way of recognizing her paintings. Mainly the basis of her paintings is on natural cotton fabric, designed to obtain a first visual connection, thus giving the viewer a feeling of purity.
