ABOUT
Blanca Nieto (Salamanca 1991) is an artist of great sensitivity and talent, in her short career she has managed to create her own style of difficult and unquestionable singularity.
Combining technical height and conceptual depth, her works are not only plastically attractive but also emotionally inspired: they invite reflection on the nature of memory and its impact on the perception of the present.
a new way of art
Her focus on expressivity through the relationship of colours and tones manifests a particular sensitivity to the emotional and psychological onslaught of colour, endowing it with emotional and symbolic meaning.
In an innovative way he explores the interaction between the material medium, combining canvas and paint, and the concept of the evocation of the past. His strokes allude to moments; his glazes, to layers of memory. Composition, interaction between the two, is his art form.
technic
The colour and the thread, the layout and the canvas, the keys to his plastic signature, converge in a crossing of time and space in which the visible and invisible worlds are interwoven to form a tapestry of light and shadow. Its emotional and psychological depth invites the viewer to a meditative interaction.
