Mara Martn Carmona

I was born in Madrid in 1975. I live and work in A Coruna (Spain).

When I work I follow an image that emerges irrationally. I do have neither a plan nor a target previously. Even so, I notice there is a common thematic nexus in my work. The main elements that I need when I paint are almost always tension and ambiguity. I use to be interested by those moments in which I distinguish what people want, understand or what they look alike. I look for the beauty of the human in absurdity, violence and tenderness. I do not seek grotesque or dramatic exaggeration. I always rely on the real, on the way I see life.
