Part of New Exhibitions
In 'Nature's Pulse,' Benvenuto captures the dynamic energy of contrasting colors, creating an atmosphere of contemplation.
The exhibition showcases a vibrant series of abstract paintings inspired by the landscape memories of North Head National Park in Manly, Australia, the setting of Benvenuto's creative space.
The series is guided by intuition and emerges directly from the subconscious, drawing on the deep reservoirs of memory. These fundamental elements of color, form, and composition are interwoven to evoke the essence of landscapes.
Originally from Chile, Benvenuto’s six years in Australia dynamically infused her paintings with the freedom and global belonging found in living abroad. This series in Dubai, connects with audiences who appreciate cultural fusion and vibrant energy. The expansive vistas of North Head and Dubai’s panoramic beauty inspire profound self-connection, translating into dynamic, gestural expressions on her canvas.
Reflecting on the collection, Benvenuto shares, “Through this series, I aim to convey the unique vibrancy and freedom of the landscapes that inspire me, both in Australia and beyond. In Dubai, a city that embodies innovation and creativity, I hope my work will resonate with viewers and inspire a shared appreciation for the universal beauty of our world's diverse landscapes.”
Maria Jose Benvenuto's vibrant abstract paintings are interpretations of global landscapes that celebrate natural beauty and evoke deep connections, fostering a shared appreciation for the dynamic interplay of memory and intuition.
