Paulina Gomez

I am an emerging artist who has explored different media such as acrylic, pencil, pastel, collage and during the last time I have dedicated to transmit in watercolor the landscapes that surround me, the people, and the world that lives inside me. From this internal experience, parallel realities are born, which are manifested through dreams, images and trips, which I later transfer to paper to see how united we are, in this infinite path of life. I wish through my art to capture the humanity of which we are part and the divinity that we can from.

I started painting and drawing from a very young age and for different reasons, instead of studying art, I studied Advertising, this allowed me to relate to the art of photography and audiovisual art, which influenced my way of seeing and processing the images I paint.
Later I trained as an artisan bookbinder by the hand of my uncle Luis Mundaca to whom I owe everything I learned about the primitive graphic arts working with movable type and the elaboration of different bindings with my applied pictorial art.
3 years ago I resumed pictorial arts in a self-taught way and surprisingly began to connect with watercolor, I understood that more than learning to control water, it is necessary to learn to flow with it and be surprised by the results that it gives us in those magical forms between strong colors and transparencies. I like to see the effects and textures that are achieved using other materials, such as sand, salt, alcohol, etc., and how it can be combined with other media such as acrylics, inks, pencils, etc. The possibilities are endless and I fully allow myself to try whatever comes.
