CalaNat

Art has always been a thread woven through her fabric, deeply rooted in her family’s legacy and the artists who surrounded her from an early age. Growing up, she was immersed in a creative environment that sparked her artistic journey. Her paintings are not just a medium of expression—they are a way for her to freeze moments in time and allow the viewer to feel the power of each brushstroke, connecting them with a moment, a memory, or an emotion.

She is a self-taught artist and began her artistic path with scientific illustrations. Over the time, her work evolved to include a variety of mediums, including oil, acrylic, etching, watercolor, and ceramics. These diverse forms allow her to explore life’s intricacies, capturing the essence of experiences and turning them into visual stories that speak to our deepest selves. 

In addition to her painting, she has dedicated more than 10 years to fine art photography, where explored the beauty of light, composition, and emotion through the lens. This experience has deeply influenced her visual language, enhancing her ability to convey depth, texture, and the subtleties of human experience in both mediums.

Her work is a fusion of abstract realism and surrealism, designed to evoke memories, reflections, and the ever-changing nature of how we experience the world. She aims to capture how memories shift over time—how they can be clear, fragile, or reshaped by the forces of the mind. In her art, she invites you to connect with your own memories, encouraging reflection on your own journey.

She explores the balance between reality and dreams, portraying the human mind as a complex and beautiful landscape where both coexist harmoniously. She invites you to pause, reflect, and journey with her into the unknown—discovering not only what is depicted in her paintings, but also what lies within.

Her studio, El Taller Ca la Nat, is based in Vienna. The name draws inspiration from the Catalonian way of referring to someone’s home, as she believes that home is where her brushes reside, where her art takes shape, and where she continues to grow as an artist. Through her work, she hopes to inspire you to embark on a journey of self-discovery and contemplation, guided by the emotions and stories her paintings tell.
