About the Artist

Maricela Salas Rico

Mexico

I am Maricela, I was born in Mexico City little over 4 decades ago.

In a small apartment in Mexico City I had my bedroom, which I used to share with my mother, it was constantly full of illustration cut outs and scissors (my mom was a hairdresser). I also kept pieces of old boxes that I pasted with my grandma’s glue to create little houses and moving cars.
 I used to play with my wooden pencil case; the colours became couples and married, although the browns were eternal loners. With my mother's hair razor I learned how to sharpen each one of them.
When walking to school I would look at planes flying above me in the sky and I thought “when I grow up I will travel a lot”.
Flying must be wonderful!
My introduction to the theory of visual arts was with a book called Los 100 Grandest de la Pictura (The100 Greatest Painters) I was 10 years old when my godmother gave me this book and I was enchanted by it.

Currently, I live in the south east of Mexico in the tranquil place near the sea, developing my artistic productions evermore.
