Art is a space of absolute freedom, where I can express my fascination with color.
MessageMagdaly Montenegro is an architect and artist, born in Caracas, Venezuela.
His career in the art world began in the 1990s; a trajectory that has lasted two decades.
During these years, she also became a respected professional in the world of architecture, at the same time as she trained and developed as an artist, participating in numerous collective exhibitions in Venezuela such as the National Fire Arts Show 2010, where she received recognition for his sculpture Ararauna, then her work has been exhibited in numerous galleries in Florida.
Her research is within the geometric abstraction with an emphasis on color; where geometry and color become the subjects of her intriguing paintings. The carefully selected tints, shapes and color create the illusion of volume, space, vibration, and transparency.
Her works reflect an artistic sensitivity along with a technical preparation that has given rise to pieces of great expressiveness.
Magdaly’s work has been in a number of prestigious and competitive shows. She won First Place in sculpture at Wynwood Juried Show Spring 2017 and at the 13th Annual ART Competition organized by the City of Penbroke Pines Recreation and Cultural Arts Department won Best Digital Art.
Statement
Space, shape and color are the three elements that make up my work. Space allows me to construct geometric shapes with the use of lines and patterns of repetition at different levels, I have constructed geometric forms and compositions; creating an attractive visual experience for the viewer. Achieving this is my greatest satisfaction.
The geometry, the repetition of patterns, colors and lines, each of these elements is realized with diverse techniques to generate different visual effects that are attractive for the human eye. I mainly use bright colors because they represent happiness, especially my use of bright reds, blues, oranges and greens that often reflect the tropical country where I was born and raised. My process often involves digital media and the skills I have developed throughout my training in architecture.
Art allows me to express my passion for color and geometry. Venezuelan artists like Jesús Soto, Carlos Cruz Diez and Víctor Varela have had a profound impact on my artistic vision as well as my architectural education; which determine the concept of my designs.
.My portfolio includes a variety of artistic expression, sculptures for indoor and outdoor spaces, acrylic paintings and mix media art.
I always try to convey in my works a message of peace and hope.
