Bio
She has lived in different countries such as Colombia, Panama, the United States, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, before finally returning to her native country, Spain. Nuria Formenti's work has been exhibited in galleries, museums and public institutions around the world.“My work is born, in part, from movement. During my childhood, I lived in different countries, and that experience of constant change left me with a fragmented memory, full of images, languages, landscapes, and sensations without a single center. That way of inhabiting the world—with displacements, adaptations, discoveries, and losses—has become the backbone of my work. It arises from that intermediate space, where the intuitive, the emotional, and the sensorial converge. This gives it an almost cartographic or narrative dimension, as if each abstract form carried coordinates or a microscopic story. I am interested in exploring the idea of controlled chaos, of how our thoughts, memories, and emotions float and interact in layers. It is an emotional map, but not one that guides; rather, one that records, that remembers without telling. I also speak of flight, not only in the literal sense—I like to paint birds tracing lines—but as a metaphor for the wandering mind, or the self that wishes to escape or migrate."
