Marcela Jard\u00f3n, was born in Buenos Aires, 1964. Known for her abstract art, she is a versatile artist who works with different art forms, including painting, photography, object art, installation art, and audiovisual media, all with an abstract approach. Jard\u00f3n focuses on ideas, which she later expresses through her art. She creates her artwork by combining objects, photographs, and paintings, treating all of them as abstract forms. Her recent works are mainly focused on paintings. According to Jard\u00f3n, drawing is the best way to express the idea of space. She believes it moves from the abstract non-existence sphere to the concrete existenceconcretion sphere.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This philosophy helps to understand her paintings, which aim to concretize a subjective artistic reality, and her paintings are significant because she <\/span><\/span><\/span>shares her thought process and expresses her subjectivity through her art.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Her aim is not only to create aesthetic pleasure for the viewer but also to evoke emotions. She uses a single muted color that rejects visible reality and representation without constructing space to achieve this.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Art enables people to express themselves and recreate their thoughts and emotions.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

She believes that experience is a collective phenomenon that goes beyond the individual. Specific experiences shared by many people over time and in different parts of the world can become embedded in our genetic memory.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This enables us to grasp the essence of what a particular landscape represents, regardless of its content, such as a mountain or snowscape, desert or seascape.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Jard\u00f3n’s most recent series of paintings is based on landscapes, a recurring theme in her work. However, she does not approach landscape art in the traditional sense. She does not imitate or <\/span><\/span><\/span>recreate any previously seen landscape. Her landscapes are not based on personal experience, so she does not feel she needs to have witnessed them firsthand to create her art.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Jard\u00f3n uses organic tempera paint in her artwork to enhance her technique and reduce the use of acrylics. Acrylic paint is made from synthetic materials and has an industrial origin, which reminds the artist of the time when plastics were overused and natural resources were depleted.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Jard\u00f3n finds tempera paint effective in her black paintings and is researching how to use it in more colorful pieces. She is fond of the contrast between the intense, bright colors and the delicate, grainy qualities of tempera.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
