Mireia Cifuentes (1966, La Seu d’Urgell, Lleida)

Mireia spent part of her life in Marbella, in southern Spain, and traveled around Europe and Asia before settling in Barcelona to begin her artistic career at Escola d’Art Sanvisens (Art School).

Her first few years of study were devoted to human portraiture. She attended the Artistic Circle of Sant Lluc, where she was awarded the top category at the Young Painters Awards and received a runner-up prize at the 24th Drawing Awards. While taking lessons from well-known Spanish painters such as Gloria Muñoz and Teresa Llácer, she also completed her studies in sculpture techniques at the Art and Skills School. She was selected by the Department of Culture of the Government of Catalonia for her first solo exhibition at the Lola Anglada Art Gallery.

After a few years of figurative work, she shifted her focus primarily to abstract painting and the discovery of new techniques to enrich her art. Always curious and enthusiastic, Mireia continues to explore life through her creative process.
