"Her paintings oscillate between figurative representation and abstraction, being characterized by a gestural brushstroke reminiscent of movement and energy."
Marta Adalid (Madrid, 1994)
Marta Adalid graduated in Fine Arts from the UCM, spending the last year of graduation in Florence. Later she moved to study at the Barcelona Academy of Art where she delved into the classical techniques of drawing and painting.
In addition to teaching at art schools, she has worked as an illustrator for the Macondo project in collaboration with photographer Alvaro Ybarra Zavala. This project has been exhibited in the cities of Madrid, Bogota and New York.
She is currently based in Barcelona, where she develops her work at Desemparat Studio, an atelier located in the District of Gracia, while working as an art educator.
During her career she began to feel attracted to abstraction, but always maintaining a strong influence of figurative painting. In the development of her work, the body has been the main object of study, understanding it as a canvas and a tool to understand what it means to be human.
Her painting oscillates between figurative representation and abstraction. It is characterized by gestural brushstrokes that are reminiscent of movement and energy, since the action of her own body is involved in the elaboration of the works.
