Paula Valenzuela Antúnez has always sought to understand how art interacts with our lives and how it allows us to perceive reality in a different way.

The artist develops a working method where the painting acts as a mentor, she is carried away by the creative process by instinct. Her work focuses on painting, as protagonist and craftsman of an imaginary that borders with abstraction. In this way, Paula Valenzuela Antúnez creates a painting in which the textures and the palette of bright and swirling colors make waves and amorphous forms. The artist is interested in the relationship between the viewer and her creations. The work appears as a landscape. Thus, she plays with reality, the public and the painting. Her work then focuses on the audience’s dynamic gaze into a new world of possibilities.

This abstract work follows the tradition of abstract expressionism, as a legacy of Helen Frankenthaler, or Francis Bacon.
