Maria Claudia Contreras Parissi

I am a contemporary artist whose practice is rooted in minimalism, intuition, and emotional balance. My work explores color as energy, with a special focus on soft tones and natural elements, which I use as a symbol of cleansing, protection, connection, and renewal. Through texture, simplicity, and carefully chosen materials, my paintings invite stillness and reflection, creating spaces that feel calm, intimate, and quietly powerful. Each piece is created as an object of presence—meant not only to be seen, but to be felt.

Self-taught artist with a degree in Marketing, combining intuitive creation with a strong sense of visual communication and emotional connection. Art has been a constant presence in my life—long before it became a formal practice—emerging naturally as a way of observing, feeling, and understanding the world. My background in developing and leading sales and marketing teams, especially among women, has shaped my sensitivity to emotion, presence, and collective energy. Today, my artistic work grows from that same place: intuition, balance, and a deep respect for inner processes.
