MARYLIN Sculpture

Elvira discovers that abstraction is her best form of expression, with it she can unleash her emotions freely, with the use of colour and textures. The composition in abstraction exists, not only in terms of form but also in the use of colour. Elvira knows how to use this technique very well so that a composition does not “limp" and in order to be seen clean and coherent. Undoubtedly, what the artist offers us with her work is a perfect symbiosis between realism and abstraction. Currently and outside the field of photography, Elvira is researching about sculpture. Her "Faces Project 3D" is the representation of her photographic work in the three dimensions. It displays before us a new range of possibilities in which the artist uses her own head as a "canvas" in which she applies the techniques she knows to paint her own face, however, this time it will not be ephemeral, instead, it will endure forever. She uses simple heads full of colour, but also ventures to use ornamentation that integrates in these figures to provide added value. She introduces animal bones she finds in fields, branches of vineyards and even pine cones. She also adds the “collage” technique with POP culture symbols, and combines them with fluorescent colours to achieve a modern and radiant effect. Elvira Carrasco is unstoppable, working with national and international galleries, being represented in cities such as Madrid, Valencia, Barcelona, Cuenca, Malaga, Murcia, Paris, New York, Tel Aviv, Eindhoven or Chengdu. She has also participated and continues to do so at art fairs around the world such as the Art Palm Beach in Miami, the SCOPE in Basel or the Affordable in Milan, having in her calendar numerous exhibitions and fairs over the coming years.
