Collisions. Quamtum. Painting

In an era where the boundaries between disciplines are increasingly blurred, the fusion of art, science, and personal growth offers profound insights into our understanding of the world and ourselves. Maria Linares Freire is an artist, editor, and director whose work brings together these realms in a unique and thought-provoking way. Originally from Andalucia, Spain, Maria's artistic journey began in London in 1998, where she started to develop her distinctive fusion of geometry, frequencies, and vibrations. Maria's art explores the interconnectedness of life, drawing inspiration from celestial bodies such as the Moon, Sun, and stars. Her themes often delve into quantum mechanics and entanglement, illustrating the invisible energy waves that connect the universe. Influences from ancient civilizations and their architectural marvels further enrich her, geometrically intricate creations. Her portfolio includes fine art, muralism, photography, and digital media. Maria's murals transform public spaces into engaging art installations that inspire onlookers. One notable piece, "The Effects of The Moon on the Open Sea," was selected by NASA to be bounced off the Moon's surface, highlighting the innovative spirit behind her work. Maria has been honoured with various prestigious awards, including the Faces of Peace International Art Prize 2022 and the Leonardo da Vinci International Prize 2022. Her exhibitions have been showcased at esteemed venues like The Glass House in London and international art fairs. Her work has appeared in publications such as SEISMA Magazine and Aesthetica Magazine, and she has contributed to contemporary art books by ACC Book Middle East and ACC Book Japan. Platforms like British Women Artists and Circle Foundation for the Arts have highlighted her profile. Continuing to push her creativity, Maria explores new concepts and mediums, including digital arts and video editing. Her precise painting approach, with meticulous lines and layered colours, conveys a deep transmission of energy, fostering a sense of unity and exploration. Recently, Maria conducted a workshop titled "Threads: Uniting Art, Science, and Self in the Tapestry of Existence," reflecting her interdisciplinary approach. This workshop revealed the connections between geometry, scientific principles, and artistic expression, providing participants with insights into their understanding of the world and themselves.
