Meritxell Ribera was born in Barcelona in 1968. She studied Industrial Design at the Elisava School in the same city, where she took her first steps in drawing and painting. She continued her search in Normandy (France), where she lived for one year and did works for private collections. Her works chase the ephemeral aspects of nature, its changing beauty, through color and gestures. Meritxell says that creating this movement is a challenge; being able to express it in the fleeting perfection of a flower is the satisfaction she seeks. Every color, every gesture, is the summary of a constant yet ever changing story. The flower’s beauty has inscribed its own demise, accepted for a greater good and the infinite is reflected through the colors, as well as the solidarity, the path, the red or green instant that admires the individual’s courage and that yields in favor of the ensemble. Maybe the flower’s real beauty is not in its color, or its shape, maybe it is not even in its fragrance but in its generosity in giving life to the fruit. Meritxell Ribera’s works are currently exhibited in cultural centers, art galleries and private collections in Spain and other European countries.
