Valentina Bilbao

STATEMENT

My artistic process is reflected onto my artwork through music. Music becomes my air. Music is my energy and I capture that energy in my work. I feel the music inside of me. “I transform the music using a subjective process, I decode the music and transform it in color, and that is to say I paint the music, bringing it from the abstract plan to the concrete, enabling it to be visual and tangible”. 

CURRICULUM VITAE

Bilbao is a visual artist born in Caracas, Venezuela, graduated from Arturo Michelena Art University. From a very young age she discovered her love of painting, drawing and poetry.
​Her artwork captures a full and complete expression of emotions; joy, passion and love with spontaneity, energy and strength through a wide range of colors, textures, shapes and figures making the artwork comprehensive and rich in content. In addition, her work has balance and harmony, which is the result of all the elements in the right proportions coming alive and maintaining a constant motion. Color is the main character of her work.
