Gabriela Meunié’s work arises from a particular life context: French-American born in Mallorca, she was imbued with the abstract artistic currents that flourished on the Mediterranean island during the eighties.
Although her formative years took place in the academic field, she has always felt part of the abstract expressionist current. In line with her precedents, she emphasizes the process to avoid theoretical excess. Meunié’s method is, hence, defined by spontaneity and instinct.
She creates her own colors based on pure pigments, acrylic binder, and acrylic colors. On the canvas, the materials express themselves in an interplay of opacities, densities, spots, and splashes that constitute the artist’s meticulous vocabulary.
