Resiliencia Painting

I studied Advertising Art but I have worked in the fashion industry for twenty years as creative director, designer and illustrator for companies like Pepe Jeans or Inditex. In 2015 I founded my own fashion brands Monikako Kids and Sakura Life Organic, a venture that I found both exciting and overflowing. In 2020 I studied the first concepts of Web 3 and Blockchain technology and its different applications to art projects, I helped artists and other sectors to understand this technology and create their own projects through conferences and courses. But it is 2023 when I feel the need to dedicate myself to the canvas exclusively after receiving a hard blow. This fact leads me to reflection, meditation and listening to my own being where I find my real purpose in life finding the need to communicate my experience and transformation in the face of adversity. Art and creativity for me is a way of life and has always been an instant part of my daily life. Observing, investigating, thinking and transforming an idea through imagination and transmitting it in a work is always a challenge, and these challenges are what move me every day to surprise myself by experimenting with new techniques and ideas. I look for elements among concepts that I am passionate about, such as nature – fascinating and infinite – music or culture, even everyday elements that sometimes create a surprising contrast. I use acrylic and water based oil mainly but I paint also watercolor. In my serie "Observación," I work with the technique of blurred backgrounds or close-ups, based on photographs I take with depth of field.
