Odilia Iaccarino · Winner Collectors Art Prize
Odilia Iaccarino was born in a small town in Mexico where she enjoyed her childhood in her family's ranch. Odilia is a self-taught artist who holds national and international awards, most recently from the Brownsville Museum of Fine Art and recognition from the CFA Circle Foundation of the Arts, Lyon, France. Her work consists of implementing figures of the menina-meaning “girl”- into the canvas by pinning the menina silhouette as the main character to then narrate anecdotes and memories through the painting.
In her most recent work, Iaccarino also uses her raw material to highlight the combination of oil, pastels, acrylics and graphite, bringing together a color palette with various and diverse shades. For Odilia, an ordinary day begins with new ideas, studies and imagination that lead her to work on sketches. Otherwise, you will find her walking her two adorable pets, little Miku and Kora the Akita, through the park.
