Spanish painter Nuria Formenti's art belongs to the lyrical and gestural abstract movement. Her work is characterized by intense colors on paper, where, along with words, she creates a deeply personal dreamlike world, drawing the viewer into complicity.
A unique expressive capacity of abstraction emerges in her emotional maps, where ink and paper intertwine with written words to create a psychic landscape in perpetual motion.
Her watercolor stains, ink threads, and tiny textual inscriptions form a poetic expression that evokes neural maps, rivers of consciousness, and psychic landscapes. Each piece is a small window into the ordered chaos of her imagination, where the pictorial gesture becomes an excuse to write, to hide thoughts among strokes, and to invoke parallel worlds that exist only in the viewer’s mind.
Formenti’s compositions not only appeal to aesthetic contemplation but also invite active reading. Like a contemporary codex, her works require a process of decoding in which every stroke and every word appears to be part of a hidden message.
She has exhibited in international museums, and her work is held in public and private collections around the world.
