MEET THE ARTIST
Monica Morales
b. Mexico City, Mexico 1972
Color has always been her language. Growing up with architect parents, she learned early on to see the world not just in shapes and structures, but in vibrant shades and contrasts. After studying Textile Design, she lived for many years in Mexico City before moving to Europe, today her studio is nestled in Italy - a place where past and present influences meet.
Her abstract work speak through layers of stains, flowing one over the other, creating bold and unexpected harmonies. Each canvas transforms space into color itself, echoing the essence of Mexico's Modern School of Architecture while staying true to her own, unmistakable voice.

"PAINTING IS GETTING LOST INSIDE YOURSELF"
Monica Morales
The stains of the artist seem to be made with a single brush, without hesitation, distractions, exaggerations or pretensions, they are simply natural. Each is a colorful field, like Frankenthaler’s art, with its own aesthetic, radiating both warmth and coldness.
Sometimes they overlap with each other, in a certain dance, and they make us think of sophisticated makeup palettes, fashion trends, fashion shades, haute couture sketches, overlays of exotic textiles and fine patches of fabrics.
The artist does not look for perfect forms, only beauty in the stains, in their chromatic planes that assemble dynamically, as in that simplicity and throwing for with her art... so tan of Mexico and colored of Europe, so diaphanous and translucent, so opaque and dull, but so vivacious, clear, lit and bright. In a word, surprising, for its way of dominating the relations and interactions between the different colours.
