Artist's biography:
Rosa Armengol Tarrés was born in Terrassa (Barcelona) in 1930, into a family of textile artisans. From an early age she showed a special sensitivity to color and composition, influenced by the fabrics and prints she saw daily in the looms of her family’s surroundings. Her interest in art led her to study drawing and painting at the School of Applied Arts of Terrassa, where she stood out for her meticulousness and her sense of light.
During the 1950s, Armengol began to devote himself fully to painting, finding in still life his principal means of expression. His works are characterized by an intimate and hushed atmosphere, with everyday objects — fruits, jugs, textiles or books — treated with a sober palette and warm light that recalls the masters of Catalan realism. Although his style remained figurative, by the end of the sixties he incorporated a looser brushstroke, closer to impressionism.
Rosa Armengol regularly exhibited in local galleries in Terrassa, Sabadell, and Barcelona, and participated in provincial competitions where she received several recognitions, such as the Painting Prize of the Diputació de Barcelona in 1968. In the seventies she combined her artistic work with teaching, giving drawing and color classes in municipal workshops.
Having withdrawn from public life since the 1990s, Rosa continued painting in her studio into old age, dedicating herself mainly to floral still lifes and interior landscapes. Her work is part of private collections in Catalonia and has been the subject of small retrospectives in her hometown.
He died in 2012, leaving behind a coherent and serene body of work that reflects an entire life devoted to the silent study of everyday beauty.
