Biography

Mimi Ripoll is an Argentine visual artist and sculptor based in Andalusia, Spain. Formed at the prestigious in Buenos Aires, her multidisciplinary practice bridges painting, mixed media, ceramic sculpture, and assemblage.

Artistic Language & Materiality: Ripoll's work explores the boundaries between poetic abstraction and stylized figuration. Her canvases and sculptural pieces are distinguished by tactile richness—incorporating natural pigments, handmade papers, textiles, sand, and layered collages that convey the passage of time and geological memory. Her artistic language is influenced by the concrete art of Joaquín Torres García, modernist aesthetics (such as Le Corbusier and Adolf Loos), and the language of constructivism.

Core Themes: Central to her oeuvre are questions of human emotion, female identity, memory, and the spiritual bond between humanity and the earth. Her visual dialogue reflects a rich synthesis of Latin American cultural depth and Mediterranean light.

Exhibitions & Collections: Throughout her career, she has presented solo and group exhibitions across galleries and cultural institutions in Argentina, Spain, and throughout Europe, with works held in numerous private collections internationally
