Ileana Moro (b1992) Costa Rica.
Currently, she lives and works in Antwerp, Belgium.
Moro’s artworks are recognized mainly for her painting in dark tones wanting to expose the depths and layers of experiences as an instinctive relationship to the invisible things and the emotions buried within her daily life.
Some represent abstract themes and isolated forms interacting within each other to archieve an intimate emotional issues, mental statements and spiritual transfiguration to awaken the soul, the unseen. Seeking to achieve a balance through the transformation from shadow to light believing that the shadow is a dark omen. A powerful teacher.
Having spent her life in Costa Rica and outside. Ileana started in architecture and swiftly found Fine Art as the better way to explore her creativity and curiosity. Her artworks are held in private collections throughout the United States, Australia, the UK, Asia and Europe.
I am an illustrator and story-teller currently based in Bristol, UK.
"Jayde Perkin is a thoughtful storyteller who uses paint not just to elevate or decorate a story, but to inject it with a personal sense of emotion and feeling. Many contemporary illustrations pop or punch with colour, but Perkin does something else: she creates a visual dialogue with the words of an author, adding not just a different perspective to a text, but infusing it with an intense atmosphere of personal expression." - AIGA Eye On Design
