María Juana Botero Restrepo

"I am a transdisciplinary artist. Since childhood, my insatiable curiosity has driven me to explore art as a means to express the complexity of the universe and the paradox of our finitude.

Art arises from the need to capture our uniqueness in creation. Although nothing is completely original, as everything is inspired by what exists, artists transform diverse influences into something new and authentic.

Just as Frankenstein created life from fragments, we artists 'steal' from multiple sources to give life to innovative works that reflect our unique essence."

I have many forms of expression, fusing painting, sculpture, makeup and performance (#hoyvoyaser and #hoynace) My style combines influences from pop art (Lichtenstein, Warhol), archetypes (Indus gods, Olympian gods, angels and biblical beings) and superhero comics, with surreal touches inspired by recurring dreams.

I work with mixed media: acrylic painting, stamping, artistic makeup and prototyping for advertising and industrial design. My favorite themes: identity, mythology, self-expression and transformation.

My palette is colorful and contrasting, with blue characters inspired by Indus gods. My art explores human complexity, diversity and emotion, uniting popular culture, mythology and surrealism."

"My art being transdisciplinary fuses pop art, surrealism and abstract art. I paint, stamp, create prototypes and transform myself into characters through makeup.

Inspired by Lichtenstein, Warhol, Indus gods, cinema, fashion and comics, I explore identity, mythology and self-expression. Vibrant and contrasting colors define my style, with characters that symbolize unity and diversity.
