Mara Montagna · Winner Collectors Art Prize

Mara Montagna · Winner Collectors Art Prize

Mara Montagna has always loved painting since she was a child, but her educational and professional journey led her to teach for 42 years. She managed to bring painting back into her life by attending night school at her hometown art high school. This experience allowed her to give her painting a professional edge and pushed her to search for her artistic identity.

She often uses a mixed technique of acrylic and collage, creating intense images with a rich variety of textures achieved by combining different textures, acrylic colors, and rhinestones. She loves creating works with vibrant colors and strong contrasts, both figurative and abstract, often represented in large formats and on various media.

Her favorite subjects are a tribute to nature, whether animals, landscapes, or flowers. Other recurring subjects are female figures who tell their stories and feelings. She has exhibited in various Italian cities, such as Palermo, Genoa, Milan, Mantua, and Parma, and abroad in Luxembourg, Barcelona, Washington, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, Madrid, and Zaragoza.
