Biography
Maria Acuyo's work is nourished by the observation of the processes of nature from its deepest secrets.
She is interested in treating painting as a projection of something more primitive, revealing the organic as an anteroom to understand the essential, the hidden and giving the matter a more reflective state.
There is in her work a marked influence of microbiology and the anatomical structures of living beings, mainly due to her scientific education, with which she seeks to construct a fictitious reality that covers forms with subtle narrative veils, creating ambiguous images. A microcosm of contradictory elements that escape from the subconscious seducing the observer by their strange familiarity.
