Tuareg Painting

Spanish artist, born in Navarra has been based mainly in Barcelona and Zaragoza, where she currently resides. She has been active since the 80s exhibiting her work in a number of exhibitions in Spain and internationally in France, Rome or New York. As member of various artistic associations, she has also participated in various group exhibitions. A symbolist atmosphere predominates in her work, created in a variety of techniques from oil, acrylic or watercolour to natural pigments or recycled paper, with eloquent plasticity, and a strong expression thru light and colour. Her work has evolved from figurative artwork to what Carmen defined as visionary art. She explained this process: “As I was painting the landscapes, in which I worked with truly pantheistic enthusiasm, the volumes and profiles that aimed for harmony in light and colour, often transformed unintentionally into different presences from the metaphysical world”. “This work arose unconsciously, looking for an evolution and change, envisioning, or attempting to portray, the invisible world thru natural pigments”.
