Artist

  • Ana Elisa Murta

    In 2017, after becoming a mother and relocating, Ana Elisa Murta fully embraced her career as a visual artist, focusing on abstract expressionism through layered textures and vibrant compositions. Her experimental process, guided by intuition and tools like palette knives, seeks authenticity and emotional depth.

     

    A turning point came in 2022 when an allergy to conventional paints led her to create non-toxic pigments from minerals discarded by mining companies in her native Minas Gerais. This sustainable, alchemic practice combines innovation, environmental awareness, and ancestral connection.
