"RITMOS LEJANOS" Painting

BIOGRAPHY
Alicia Ramos Muñoz is a contemporary Uruguayan-born visual artist and professional interior designer with her creative studio based in Mijas Costa (Málaga), Spain.
She is dedicated to exploring the intersection between expressive landscapes, geometric abstraction and emotional figurative art. Working with high-quality acrylics and oils on cotton and linen canvas and wooden substrates, Alicia's creative process is driven by an intuitive manipulation of texture, color harmony and light.
Each artwork is an unique, fully hand-painted testament to the traditional craftsmanship of fine art, featuring cataloged detail on the reverse and official Certificate of Authenticity.

ARTIST STATEMENT
"My art is an open dialogue beween the canvas and my emotions. I paint because it allows me to translate the silent energy of my surroundings into a tangible visual rhythm. My goal is always the same: to create a piece that breathes, vibrates and transforms the space it occupies.
I believe in the irreplaceable value of authentic, manual brushstrokes, the unique traces of human touch that a machine can never replicate."

THE INTERSECTION OF ART AND DESIGN
As a professional interior designer and formed owner of a furniture store, Alicia possesses a unique, clinical understanding of how art interacts with architecture, furniture and light. She does not merely paint decorative canvases; she creates architectural focal points. Her highly versatile portfolio spans heavy materic abstract series, interactive rotable diptychs that challenge traditional geometry and bold neo-expressionist figurative works.

TECHNIQUE AND PHILOSOPHY
Her creative process is deeply intuitive, often using art as a vehicle for motional catharsis. Ramos Muñoz is known for her masterful use of palette knives, heavy gesso, natural sand and mixed-media collages on premium cotton, linen, wood and plexiglass supports. On the front, sometimes she subly signs her pieces with her distinctive acronym ARM.
A hallmark of her professional standards is her meticulous presentation: every artwork features cleanly painted edges to eliminate the need for traditional framing, comes fully varnished and is individually cataloged and hand-signed on the reverse.
After a long hiatus from the canvas, the 2020 global pandemic marked a definitive turning point in her life, reawakening her dormat artistic soul during the lockdown.
