Laura Erviti

Laura Erviti

Laura Erviti is a contemporary surrealist painter and muralist from Barcelona, who seamlessly blends the imagery of her dreams with environmental activism. Her deep connection to the subconscious mind has led to a fusion of the real and the surreal, as she uses the language of her dreams to compose the visual narratives in her paintings, incorporating symbols and metaphors. Sensations and emotions unfold organically in her compositions, merging dreams, environmentalism, and activism.

Aesthetically, her paintings combine different layers, perspectives, color gradients, and edges. Unifying them in a single image creates the effect of a broken or multiplied reality. She studied Fine Arts at the University of Barcelona, then moved to Berlin, where she pursued a Master’s in Arts. Later, she moved to Bristol and London, where she earned an MA in Fine Arts from Central Saint Martins. She has participated in numerous exhibitions in Bristol, London, and the UK, and has also taken part in various street art events and mural festivals.

As the child of psychoanalyst parents, Laura grew up surrounded by discussions about the human psyche, which sparked her interest in exploring the world of dreams. She writes them down in dream notebooks, where she uncovers hidden aspects of the human psyche, from joy and wonder to fear and unease.

Her murals are painted with carbon-absorbing eco paint, and her canvases are created using natural handmade oil paints that she makes herself, returning to the techniques of the Old Masters. She is an active researcher of sustainable alternatives for all the materials necessary for her creative process, aiming to achieve a zero-waste creative practice.
