About Luisa

My artwork emerges from my imagination.

After years of learning, practicing and pursuing the “right way” to make art, I've turned to cinema, to old masters’ works, and found photographs for inspiration.

I allow ideas and inspiration to take shape without the preoccupation with rules and expectations.

The work explores dichotomies, contrasts and opposites. I use a limited colour palette and push watercolour, gouache and water-soluble oils into alternative surfaces and expressions free from rigid methodologies.

It’s been ten years of explorations and experiments.

Agnes Martin once said it took her twenty years to paint what she wanted. It might take me longer.

I recently began exploring photography. Let's see where these two visual practices meet.
