Virginia Bersabé

(spain)

Virginia Bersabé (Spain, 1990) holds a degree in Fine Art from the University of Seville.

Her painting practice takes place both in and outside the studio, ranging from gouache on paper to large canvases, as well as large-scale murals in public and private spaces. Her work centres on older women, their relationship with space, and the physical and pictorial manifestations of their memory and identity. Through her creative process, she explores a new dialogue, evolution and quest for the representation of women, alongside the technical possibilities of new contemporary pictorial languages.   

A project that emphasises the immense human heritage and aesthetic power of old age. It is not only an aesthetic and personal challenge, seeking the subtlety and complexity of the discourse, but also a commitment to painting as a medium capable of containing and conveying emotion, as well as constructing form. Based on these principles, one of the main artistic objectives is to achieve a physical, artistic and emotional connection with elderly women and their private spaces through painting. 

She has painted murals in countries such as Spain, France, Canada and Kosovo since 2017. She has also held solo and group exhibitions internationally featuring her studio work.

Since 2011, she has been working on *Perdidas en un cortijo andaluz* (Lost in an Andalusian farmhouse), a project involving the painting of murals on the walls of abandoned rural buildings in Andalusia, in which she combines her research into memory and women with abandoned architecture and the history of the Andalusian countryside.
