Ximena Giraudi paints vast canvases that examine themes of personal identity and the complexities of living in a globalized world. Her free-flowing abstractions lend expensiveness and openness to the exploration of new ideas and experiences. By rejecting the constraints of figuration, the artist harnesses the power of color and texture, stirring the viewer with dynamic and emotive compositions. The approach, however, is directional. Giraudi sets out with a clear vision in mind, defining the overarching structure of the piece. Breaking down the walls of spatiality, she harmonizes verticals and horizontals, curves and gyrations with ample monochromatic fields, which build striking, cohesive storytelling. Giraudi seeks out the visceral with “a mandate of absolute sincerity,” true to her sense of self, as an artist and woman.  

Giraudi began to paint in 2005 and trained at the private workshop of Argentine painter Luis Altieri. She lives in Argentina with her family, where she runs her own fine art content agency.
