How it all began...

Since I was a child I love to paint, to draw, to create, to use colours, to put together forms, to watch carefully all the objects, the lanscapes are around me

In the works...

I have been a university professor in the Fine Art- Printmaking- graphic design departments in different universities in my native country Colombia, in London, and Portugal

Down the road...

I loved to take pictures from graphitties here or abroad

About me in general...

As a Latin American woman, I find a subversiveness in painting and drawing that allows me a way to deceive the viewer and at the same time vocalize my silence concerning the cultural subjugation of women. You will find my work figurative, and symbolic. You will find my figures evoking power despite their size. You will find me.

if you could collaborate with/meet any artist, past or present, who would it be?

Paula Rego
