Bea Sarrias

Painting

Bea is interested in architecture and the portrayal of iconic spaces. Her work, based on the works of important Spanish and international architects, has received several awards and her virtuous handling of light and shadows has been highlighted.

Her most recent projects include the large-scale portrait she painted live in 2019 at NATO headquarters in Brussels. Shortly thereafter, she undertook an artist residency at Mana Contemporary in New York, where she worked on the imprint that architect J. L. Sert had left in the city.

ARTIST'S WORK

BIOGRAPHY

Bea Sarrias (Barcelona), artist from the University of Barcelona, has carried out her pictorial artwork in this city, in which she has found the topics and places that have given birth to the most significant lines of her artistic work.

Bea has participated in different collective and individual art exhibitions in her native town and Madrid, where the critics and the local media have received her artwork with meaningful acceptance, emphasizing in her conscious and fine use of light and shadows.

Her whole artwork has been developed through the painting, specifically by means of a realistic technique that finds its main references in the American realism of the 20th century; from where she takes interest on the modernity of conceptual terms and pays close attention to the careful handling of perspective, light, color and a clean brushwork regarding formal terms. This is clearly appreciated in her artwork, inspired in the work of architects as Coderch, Saenz de Oinza, Fisac or Richard Neutra.

Otherwise, although the evidence that relays on her idea of portraying specific architectonic spaces, it is worth noting her artistic series named Rbla. Catalunya 61, in which the artist tends to represent the interior parts of the house seen as inhabited locations, despite the complete lack of human figures. This allows you to glimpse the intention of bringing the living subjects that have created a memory of the place through the objects that compose the scenes.
