KromaTik - Entrelazados XL

I am a visual artist based in Spain, and KromaTiK is my alter ego. The name KromaTik, or Kroma, as my friends usually call me, refers to the use of color as an artistic act. As Kroma I prefer to remain anonymous.

Based in Barcelona, where from my studio and creative lab I develop my most personal work, projects and collaborations with brands for more than 20 years. I have worked for brands such as Cervezas Alhambra, TotCor, Raima, Diputación de Barcelona, Grup ATRA, Sr. Martín and Therapyside, among others.

I hold a degree in Fine Arts, I have a master’s in communication and marketing focused on art, and a higher degree in plastic arts and design in textile art. I earned the Pedagogical Aptitude Certificate, where I combine my passion for painting (which I work at 90%) with teaching (10%), especially in social work contexts, as I consider the importance of art in less privileged environments: "art can transform people’s mindset and it is people who can improve the world".

I enjoy teaching art, also because it forces me to leave the studio and engage with people, to build real connections and reflect them in my pictorial work.

I have exhibited in galleries such as Ola Gallery in Barcelona and La Panartería, specialized in urban and contemporary art in Madrid. Also in the Creatitis gallery in Madrid and Casa Panot in Barcelona. I have exhibited in Berlin at BcmA Contemporary Art Laboratory. My work has also been part of the exhibition at the National Museum of Ceramics and Decorative Arts ‘González Martí’ in Valencia.

I experiment with street art, installation, and mural painting. I have created several large-format walls in Madrid and Barcelona.

I have participated in numerous urban art festivals such as Pintamalasaña and CALLE in Madrid, winning the prize for poster design in 2024. I have also taken part in CI Urban Fest in Madrid and FemFabrik in Barcelona.

I have received various recognitions, and my collectors are around the world: France, Belgium, Spain, the United States, Portugal, and Germany.

Before studying Fine Arts, I came from mathematics and physics, so I am very interested in topics like the cosmos and the universe, science, and human and universal connections.

Although I come from a classic academic and figurative education at the University of Fine Arts, what I like is working with abstract art because it forces me to paint without paying too much attention to what appears on the canvas, embracing and taking advantage of accidents. It is gestural and intuitive painting that connects with my most primitive and authentic self. I tend to work in series; it helps me organize emotions and feelings.

Movies that inspire me include "Contact" or "Interstellar," and they directly influence my painting with their aesthetics and their vision of dystopian futures that spark my imagination. Artists who have also influenced my visual language include Joan Miró, Hilma af Klint, Sonia Delaunay, and Kandinsky.

I like creating connections with my clients; I think it is the way to close the circle between artist and collector, where the energy of the collective is transformed and gives meaning to the act of creation.

This artwork explores human and universal connections through the dance of brushstrokes, textures, and colors, creating a vital flow. The Dialogue between Humanity and Nature manifests in a deep connection, harmony, and cosmic chaos between the human being and everything that surrounds us.
