Yuliana Miranda

Yuliana Miranda (Colombia, 1994) "presents Matorrales, a series composed of oils on canvas and on fique paper, through which the artist immerses the viewer in her routine that could well be called shinrin yoku (forest bath in Japanese). This time the surface of the painting contains the depth of the forest at the time when the sunlight pierces through the branches of the trees and projects into the interior, opening a path in the darkness. Miranda recreates an immersive experience of nature that unfolds the duality of existence, of painting, of the forest itself, posing, a vision of the yūgen or the sublime not from the contemplation of distant grandeur, but of the immense and overwhelming detail that emerges from close observation."
