Beatriz Elorza
"My work involves creating large-scale, abstract paintings that aim to convey my emotions through color and create a personal pictorial language. The color is a starting point for me; the fluid brush strokes talk about the freedom I feel when I'm in front of the canvas. Within each painting, nature is a pretext for me to combine and express the dynamism and tensions of my unconscious self." - Beatriz Elorza
Elorza's work explores the beauty of nature and has been described as emotional abstract expressionism. Always using four colours or fewer, Beatriz Elorza originals employ a wide range of media including inks, pigment powders and golden acrylics. While her ethereal canvases have a sense of calm, her intuitive process of drips and mark making animates each image turning it into something strong and vital.
Elorza's artwork has been exhibited at the Wells Museum (UK), has been part of the Summer Exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts in London and can be found in the collection of the Tsvetaev Museum in Moscow. She has exhibited internationally with solo exhibits in Madrid, London and New York along with group shows in Japan, Russia and Ireland.
