Ana Valdes

Escaping from Darkness, Contemporary Art, Abstract Painting, 21st Century

2024

Painting was always present in Valdes's life, but it was not until she finished her Bachelor's Degree in Textile Design at the Iberoamericana University that she focused on art. She began to experiment with relaxed strokes and, in no time, had captured the public's attention, with the originality and imperfection of her works. In just a couple of months she had sold more than 180 works in Mexico City. Without prior sketches, the painter gives her arm absolute freedom and manages to show her own version of reality and how, in one way or another, we are all connected. Valdes´s works are distinguished by the depth and fluidity of her strokes, which move effortlessly on the canvas. Each line, each curve, has an emotional result, it expresses what you feel in the moment. These lines flow along the canvas, interacting with each other, traveling a continuous and unique path that will never be the same again.
