Born in Valencia and based in Mallorca for more than two decades, Marta Blasco is a contemporary Spanish artist known for the reinterpretation of myths and icons in the history of art, and her profound exploration of femininity, memory and identity. Throughout his career, Blasco has developed a visual language that intertwines drawing and painting, and has contributed to the artistic development of the island with installations such as La Veu de la Sibila (2017) in the Palma Cathedral.
Formed at the Escuela de Bellas Artes de Valencia, Blasco invokes the power of the feminine and creates bridges between the classical and the contemporary, the mythological with the everyday, the personal and the universal. References to mythology and great Spanish maestros such as Velázquez or Picasso unfold in their works, not as homages, but as battlefields where the ancient and the contemporary are confronted and transformed.
Marta Blasco has crossed several artistic languages, creating a versatile medium applicable to different techniques and supports, and investigates the symbolic and iconographic consistency of images.
His work has been exhibited at art fairs, as well as important national and international galleries and museums. Among his most recent exhibitions are: September (2024), at CCA Andratx; The enchanted forest (2024) at the Centro Cultural de la Misericordia, Fragmentos (2024) at the Galería Marimón de Palma; and Mitogyny (2022) at Casa Museo Can Marquès de Palma. Throughout his career, he has also received several awards as an artist.
