Latest large scale paintings by Ana Pallares following her Open Studio Residency
About
Painter and poet, Ana’s work reflects on pain, death and other intangible realities which too often occur with little, or incomprehensible, reason. She strives to find and attach new meanings to these realities hoping to present them in a healthier more manageable way: ‘ultimately aiming to turn destructive feelings into constructive action‘
Interested in ambiguity as it plays with the surprise effect, she finds great joy painting the deformed and weird faces of her works with rainbow colours. ‘People feel lost while watching them whereas I feel I could not have expressed the tragicomedy of life in a better way‘.
Born in 1993 in Barcelona, she was fifteen when she discovered graffiti and continued exploring different artistic practices such as painting, illustration and poetry.
She has exhibited in Barcelona, Madrid and London: Brick Lane Gallery, Lacey Contemporary, Walton Fine Arts and the Illustrated 2016 Art Fair.
Ana Pallares will be painting live in the GreatArt store, 41-49 Kingsland Rd, London E2 8AG on Friday 24th/Saturday 25th/Sunday 26th February.
