About me ...
I live by the art - אני גר אמנות - yo vivo el arte
I want confidants, not only clients !
My name is Matilde Cánepa González.
I am a visual artist born in Caracas, Venezuela, and I studied art at the Cristobal Rojas School of Fine Arts in Caracas. I continued my art studies in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) and Buenos Aires
(Argentina) in the different techniques.
I lived for a long time in Tenerife, Spain, but currently, I have my studio in Berlin.
My intention is not only to create sculptures and paintings, but also visual installations. I write poetry reflecting on art, education, and the creative process.
As a multidisciplinary artist, I have been developing my sculptures, paintings, and artbooks for more than 20 years.
For my sculptures, I use different supports and materials, such as reliefs, textures, calligraphy, and symbols that have emerged from a syncretic language.
I also see art as a form of therapy that fosters creativity and personal integrity. To achieve this, I have designed and conducted various courses for special groups such as children, migrants, and individuals with disabilities. My courses include creative painting and sculptural ceramics.
Creativity is an inexhaustible source for expression, play, and therapy that contributes to human growth, social connection, intercultural sensitivity, and the
integration of individual potential.
This also involves guiding teachers, educators, and other groups involved in supporting adults and children.
My goal is to continue developing in a constant creative process.
