Life and death understood as a process that leads us to become more aware of ourselves, of what we truly are beyond our small person, are recurring themes in my work. Beyond what we perceive with the physical senses there is something that encompasses us and transcends us at the same time, that silent and inexpressible mystery but latent and evident in the eyes of the soul is the driving force of my painting.Mireia Cifuentes was born in La Seu d’Urgell (province of Lleida, Spain). During her extensive travels across Europe and Asia, she discovered and developed her passion for art. In 1992, she settled in Barcelona to devote herself exclusively to painting. She considers herself to be a self-taught painter, although she has been supported by several wellknown painters and artists.My curiosity in experimenting with different techniques and materials has led me through a long process from figuration to abstraction. I currently experience the fusion of both trends. Her work has been exhibited in art galleries an contemporary art fairs in Spain and several countries in Europe.
