Maria Jose Murillo Poblador

Maria Jose Murillo was born in San Jose, Costa Rica is a self-taught artist and an architecture student. Her work is motivated by the human mind and the nature of mental states, their effects and their causes as a reflection that addresses issues of mental processes and their relationship to the human body.
Her paintings evoke a dynamism and energy that modernizes the environment that surrounds it. Her work continually challenges our understanding of polarities: light and dark, complex and elemental, shadow and color, generating a composition of shapes and contrasts stimulating the senses.
