Isabel Miramontes
Isabel Miramontes was born in 1962 in Santiago de Compostella. It was in Belgium, that the artist grew up and completed her studies, obtaining a teaching diploma in Fine Arts at the institute Sainte Marie. She continued her training from 1988 at the fine Arts Academy of Saint-Gilles, in Patrick Pouillart's studio, where she acquired a solid experience of drawing and sketching from live models. She retained from this experience the need to fix at any moment the human body’s movements, poses and impressions, jotting them down in numerous sketchpads.
The visual language of Isabel Miramontes steadfastly represents the human being in all the ambiguity of its power and frailty, its confinement and yearning for liberty, its dreams and triumphs. This fascinating figure, the synthesis of form and thoughts, expresses the reality of life with its moments of joy, but also drama, abandon and tension. Indeed a figure who most assuredly speaks to everyone at the very depth of being.
