Julia Martín González Biography

Tenerife, Spain, 1979

An emerging Spanish artist, Julia Martin Gonzalez works with mixed media. Some of her two dimensional paintings and drawings are reminiscent of Rothko?s work, while other pieces use a variety of objects and materials to create protruding forms.

She attended the Escuela de Artes y Oficios Fernando Estevez, and has a degree in Fine Arts from the Universidad de La Laguna.

Gonzalez says of her work: The canvas itself begins to lose its initial function (as a support for paint) to take on multiple possibilities; with a hole, cut, or stitch, transforming itself into a receptacle for three- dimensional forms.
