​Angela is a Colombian/Swiss artist and Instructor, currently living in Lutry, Switzerland.

 

Main themes of her work and sources of inspiration:

 

• Traditional/ ancient believe systems, some of them still being practiced today in juxtaposition with modern believes that fuel primary thoughts and self-satisfaction.

• Rituals as a way of passing on knowledge, building structured minds and unquestionable faith 

• Humanity and Divine

• Healers, artisans, mystics, ascetics, aboriginals, shamans / Practices of humility, generosity, stillness. 

• Exhaustion and creative entropy in  modern society.

• Concept of Integration/Differentiation

• Patterns/ Looking for meaning /Forgotten paradigms.

 

Symbols and Techniques:

 

Female figures are the main characters of Angela’s work. Sometimes they are presented with fragile and vulnerable dripped lines surrounded by thick textures, mixed media, or scratched texts (sgraffito) suggesting written paths, heaviness and noise. Other works include structured and divine women, self-confident, wise, healers and keepers of secrets as nature itself. The use of traditional tools such brushes or conventional colors are combined with other mediums like

sticks, knives, sand, handcrafted paper, natural pigments, and other materials.
