Miki Leal
Spanish, b. 1974
Always working on paper, Miki Leal develops a very personal and abstract imagining with pop and dream overtone. Like if they were fantasies, the scenarios that he creates with a polished pictorial technique are fantasies of forms and colors that have been extracted directly from the tribulations of his artistic mind. His methodology of work uses association to find elements to be developed with energy, strength and versality that characterizes his paintings. “I have passed through different creative processes, even though it has always been an own process of the abstract painter, because I always start from white. What is important is to continue painting until something appears made of constituents that refer to elements that you have in your mind, present at that moment.”
His work takes part in the following collections: Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid; ARTIUM, Centro-Museo Vasco de Arte Contemporáneo, Vitoria; Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Castilla y León (MUSAC), León; Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporáneo (CAAC), Sevilla; Colección CAC de Málaga, Málaga, among others.
