Carla Tarruella

Barcelona, 1966

Expressionist-abstract painter with influences from artists such as Klee, Munch, Goya, Turner, Staël or Xingjian and traditional Chinese painting.

Her works are characterized by an absence of symbolism and a search for suggestion through the chromatic range, shapes, textures and shades to create a visual poetry that suggests individuality and reflection.

Throughout her career she has been experimenting with multiple techniques and materials, connecting with diverse currents. Her work conveys diverse emotions, sometimes provocative, sometimes of stillness and peace, contrasting order and disorder, geometry and abstraction, sometimes combining it with human figures and faces, to suggest the theme of the individual versus the entity.
