KromaTik - Y tú, ¿me ves? 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, references 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 have developed my most personal work, projects and collaborations with brands for over 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, a master’s in communication and marketing focused on art, and a higher degree in Plastic Arts and Design in textile art.
ICertified in teaching aptitude where I combine my passion for painting (90%) with teaching (10%), I especially enjoy it in social outreach areas, as I believe art is important in less privileged environments: “art can transform people’s mindsets and it is people who can make the world better.”
I enjoy teaching art, also because it forces me to leave the studio and connect with people, to create 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 at Creatitis Gallery in Madrid and Casa Panot in Barcelona. I have also exhibited in Berlin at BcmA Contemporary Art Laboratory. My work has also been part of the exhibition at the National Museum of Ceramics and Suntuary Arts ‘González Martí’ in Valencia.

I experiment with street art, installation, and mural painting. I have created several large-format murals 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 participated in CI Urban Fest in Madrid and FemFabrik in Barcelona.
I have received various mentions and my collectors are around the world: France, Belgium, Spain, the United States, Portugal and Germany.

Before studying Fine Arts, I came from the world of mathematics and physics, so topics like the cosmos and the universe, science, and human and universal connections interest me greatly.

Although I come from a classical and figurative academic education from 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 order emotions and feelings.

Movies like “Contact” or “Interstellar” inspire me and directly influence my painting with their aesthetics and their vision of dystopian futures that ignite my imagination. Artists such as Joan Miró, Hilma af Klint, Sonia Delaunay, and Kandinsky have also influenced my plastic language.

I enjoy creating connections with my clients; I believe it is how 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 work explores human and universal connections through the dance of brushstrokes, textures, and colors, creating a vital flow. The Dialogue of Humanity with Nature manifests in a deep connection, harmony, and cosmic chaos between the human being and everything that surrounds us.
