“The “Look Deeper Project” series was borne of my desire to know myself and others in a more meaningful way. This work is a reminder to look beyond the veneer of the present and what we want to see, for answers. There are limitations to what the eye and the ego can process at first glance. Both have been conditioned to discern in ways that perhaps are no longer useful - if they were ever healthy.To grow and to heal, we must consider that the truth of who we are is deeper than the first impressions, physical appearances and archetypes that too quickly and too easily influence our perception. We must slow down enough to take our whole selves and others’ whole selves in.”

Marinés Adrianza was born to artist parents and raised in the coastal town of Puerto la Cruz, Venezuela. She took to creative expression and a sensory approach to learning from an early age. This eventually led to her strong interest in the experiential nature of mixed media and frequent use of it in her work – a lot of which channels her studies of psychology and ongoing curiosity about human behavior and emotion. Self trained, Marinés admits that, for her, painting is a love language, describing her process as “freeing from the stringent perfectionist bounds of conventional realism” and the traditional art schooling of the Academy.
