ABOUT THE ARTWORK

He descubierto placer en los contrastes de amarillo y negro. Últimamente también utilizo el blanco rodeado de línea negra que veo como se configuran sin saberlo, algo como cuerpos que parcialmente aparecen y desaparecen . Trabajo conscientemente alejada de cualquier representación figurativa, para mi es liberador, me hace disfrutar . La reflexión, la identificación con algo mundano aparece después de decidir la composición, colores y líneas. Para mi son más gestos que traen recuerdos de escenas quizás de mi inconsciente.

my personal story I grew up in a family where creativity was enjoyed, where being creative was highly valued. In this context, I have found my refuge and my satisfaction in plastic expression. When I had to decide which professional path to take, the Fine Arts degree represented that space that I so longed for, where I could investigate and interact with the artistic field. As an indispensable condition of the creative character, my enthusiasm to discover and experiment inevitably led me to travel far from my city, from my country. I began a travel journey that for years kept me living in New York, and then in the city of London. In both places working on everything that is within my reach and combining it with my artistic concern. I participated in courses, exhibitions of Alternative Art, Urban Art, workshops and I visited numerous exhibitions in which I related to the artists of the moment. Once back in my hometown, Gijón in Asturias, I decided to continue with that idea, in which, supported by a group of friends, we founded the Alternative Art Association, with which we worked in disused commercial spaces, to get to expose the The work of all those who wanted to show the public their most experimental side. Getting ahead in Spain with those projects, I'm talking about 2007, it wasn't easy, but it filled me with pride and made me happy during this time. After some difficult years in which I combined my teaching practice with artistic creation, I started a family. Being a mother kept me focused for a few years on raising my children as my main occupation. Without leaving my passion, which was always mainly painting, in 2017 I show the evolution of my work on social networks, preferably on instagram, I feel comfortable and start a good relationship with those who follow me . I settle in a place on the street in Madrid and teaching agreed with the practice of my painting in a public way. I want to bring art closer to the street. An obsession that accompanies me always. In a highly rational world, we are entering a new stage in which being creative and knowing emotions and feelings are added. Since 2020 I have returned to my homeland and continue my painting project from my own home. Since then I have participated in national exhibitions and fairs (International Art Week in Oviedo, Espacio Liquido Gallery, Madrid) and international, (‘Estampa’, Madrid and ‘Pinta’ Miami during Art Basel).
