MessageMariett is a Spanish Multidisciplinary artist based in New York with a wide international background. Formed in the Art Students League in New York for 3 years. has exhibited individually and collectively in Madrid, Mexico, Miami, New York and Italy.
At the age of 23, Mariett Monfort (Madrid, 1983) moved abroad to start in the world of marketing and advertising. Her career took her to New York, where her work with different photographers and creatives, made her connect with the art world.
Mariett Monfort’s works are a remarkable display of intuition and deliberation in a process that requires contemplation and thought in order to probe the interior and the exterior self. A prolific artist, her aesthetic repertoire consists of painting, painting installation, photography and sculpture, all of which are part and parcel of her contemporary abstract visual vocabulary. By overlapping layers of solid patterns and luminescent colors, Mariett creates in her compositional structures diaphanous veils and organic forms that suggest energy, harmony, life, movement and depth of field. Monfort’s diverse strategies fuse the experiential and the exploratory. It’s a voyage to the center of her inner cosmos – dripping fluids, molecules and suspended biomorphic forms that inhabit the human body and her body politics.
She recently was selected for The Art Student League od New York’s prestigious Career Development Program under the tutelage of the renowned painter, Marc Dennis.
Statement
I am a Mixmedia Painter.
I create organic shapes, experimenting with colors and textures, that represent my thoughts and feelings.
Listening to music is a critical part of my process. I like to think that I dance in the canvas.
