"Origin" Painting

Almudena Angoso (Valencia, 1989) discovered her passion for painting as a child, inspired by her maternal grandmother—also a painter—who passed on to her a love for art and its ability to express and tell stories. Since then, painting has been her constant companion and the language through which she understands and expresses her vision of the world.
She studied Fine Arts for two years in Barcelona but decided to continue her training in a self-taught way, beginning a creative journey marked by the exploration of human essence. In Menorca she established her first art studio and developed a body of work focused on the soul, dreams, passions, fears, desires, and all those emotional territories that shape the experience of living. Her visual language blends portraits, symbols, abstractions, and dreamlike spaces that interact with one another to delve into the inner world shared by all human beings.
Her travels and cultural experiences deeply shaped her work. Her time in Singapore, where she lived for two years, brought a strong Asian influence into her artistic practice. Later, her path led her to Dubai, where she lived for five years fully dedicated to her artistic development and participating in numerous international exhibitions. Among them are World Art Dubai, the International Art Fair of Monaco, the Florence Biennale, the Dakar Art Biennale, as well as various shows in countries such as Greece, Rome, and Kuwait.
In 2024 she returned to her beloved island of Menorca to co-found, together with Lidia Piqué, Enso Art Gallery, a project created to host, promote, and share contemporary artistic expression. She currently creates and exhibits her work from Menorca, both in the gallery and in international venues.
Her work tells human and personal stories through images filled with emotion, color, and symbolism. She works with mixed media—combining oil, acrylic, collage, plaster, and other materials—to build textures, layers, and visual languages that connect with the viewer through depth and authenticity, in a style she defines as ‘abstract realism.’
