Acrylic on canvas. Daniela Marin is a trailblazer in South American abstract art, painting a vivid tapestry of colours that capture the continent's spirit and turbulence/turmoil. Her work is a personal map of her journeys, filled with symbols like spirals and loops, signifying life's cycles and migrations. She merges urban geometry with organic forms, reflecting the tension between Latin America's heritage and modern challenges. Marin's art is visually striking and a deep social commentary rooted in her diverse experiences from Venezuela to Peru.

1977 Perù, Venezuela

Daniela Marin was born in 1977 and was raised in Venezuela, Dominican Republic, Chile, and Argentina. However, nowadays she is located in Lima, Peru, where she lives and works. Educated in graphic and textile design at the CHAVÓN School of Design (affiliated with Parsons School of Design) in the Dominican Republic, her work speaks its own original unique language, void of cultural expectations. In her artworks incandescent, whimsical, biomorphic forms flirt with geometric structures and stripes. This contrast is significant, because it reinterprets her childhood memories. Her uses of colours and textures, such as fluorescent pink and orange backgrounds or furry textures on playful organism, taunt the viewer’s curiosity. In the work, the artist reconnects with her inner child.
