NÚRIA L.RIBALTA Barcelona - 1957. ( Web )
I work and I love enamelling with fire on metals over other ways of art expression because
of their excellent possibilities, immutability and big versatility, which this technique
offers me.
I always have tried to mantain a depurated technique (execution) in benefit to (serving
to/ servant to) the creativity, sharing (combinning) traditional techniques with the most
modern products and new techniques as industrial enamelling, silkscreen or transfers like
"collage" and adding the recent vitrificable materials as lusters, water colors,
crayons or acrilic pigments... posible to use for firing at high temperatures.
My work of art is divers. I was interested in the simbolism and in the world of dreams,
the erotism, the surrealistic objects, the visual poetry and recently, perhaps due to the
influence of my long period dedicated to the study and investigation for doctorl thesis,
I'm working on historical references.
I´m inspired too by nature and many natural elements (leafs, grass, trees...) appear in
my works.
I work with very simple formal structures, on steel plates coated with industrial enamel
and using glass filaments and silver and gold foil very often in my compositions. |
