To believe in art is to believe in life — Henry Moore
In this inaugural exhibition, PRIMERA, we pay tribute to the beauty of life from all perspectives.
We integrate intimacy and fragility with chromatic expansiveness and unapologetic pride. We blend the rawness of fractured reality through photography with the abstract fusion of colorful lines, mystery, and suspense. We explore the concept of home, the interior, and the contrasts of difference. We embrace silence alongside the intensity of volume.
This exhibition is about welcoming, feeling, and living—activating every sense, even the common one.
ISABEL NÚÑEZ
Isabel captures the art and tenderness of embracing our wounds and fragility like no one else. Her work subtly and beautifully captivates the soul, drawing us into the depth of her perspective. Darkness becomes a place of intimacy, a space of secrets. Light and shadow coexist with clean contrasts, enhanced by the powerful touch of bright color. She mirrors the human condition—full of coherence and incoherence, bathed in light and shadows, as close to the heavens as to the earth.
With extraordinary sensitivity, Isabel explores the concept of kintsugi, the art of cherishing our scars. She fuses the beauty of brokenness with the gentleness of tenderness, embodying a powerful feminine lineage in her expansive, nurturing form. When asked what art means to her, she exclaims without hesitation, “It is my life!” Her art holds no secrets; she opens herself and shares her intimacy, inspiring deep respect—respect for treading sacred ground.
Both hers and our own.
VIRGINIA FRIEYRO
Color, explosion, joy, fluidity—words fall short in capturing the essence of Virginia’s artistic expression.
She defines herself as an expert in color, stating, “I’ve been teaching chromatics for more than 20 years.” Yet this description barely scratches the surface of her essence. Visiting Virginia in her studio is an expansive, immersive experience. Virginia, like her art, is a burst of pure energy, a connection, an injection of enthusiasm and intensity.
In her life, as in her art, there are both small moments and grand ones—moments of expansion, containment, and sometimes rupture. There’s explosion and implosion, but always, always, truth and presence. Virginia presents herself as she is—with her feelings, experiences, processes, and moments. Her art is inspired by her being; she delves deep into her own depths and brings to the surface what she has lived. Her work transmits, quite literally, her experiences.
And only later does she fully comprehend them.
POOYA ARYANPOUR
In addition to being an artist, Pooya Aryanpour is a professor, university lecturer, interior designer, curator, and art consultant.
In his work, he combines ephemeral forms and lines to create familiar illusions. He engages viewers in an interactive experience, blending architecture, sculpture, and painting to craft a sensory presence enveloped in mystery.
MONSA DOMINGO
Monsa contemplates the mysteries of life through her art. Her personal experiences permeate her work, creating sincere dialogues with the viewer. With a unique style, she fuses painting with sculpture, crafting three-dimensional beauty in each of her pieces and ephemeral installations.
Her work captures the essence of matter, embodied in the form of “living stones”—circular and rectangular volumes that symbolize the duality between the physical and spiritual, connecting us to both the tangible and the intangible.
