Marcela Florido’s work thrives on uncanny combinations, both spatially and in terms of formal content, skillfully incorporating figuration and representation with the flatness and geometry of Concrete and Neo-Concretism. While playing with unabashed girlishness (stars, flowers, pink, etc.), her work addresses profound pictorial concerns central to painting. In a world where technology and social media have fundamentally changed our self-presentation, Florido’s exploration of self-portraiture takes on new significance.
