Paola Poletto

Paola Poletto is a contemporary visual artist from Spain whose multifaceted practice spans across painting, mixed media, and installation art. Born in Madrid, Poletto pursued her formal studies at the Universidad Complutense’s Faculty of Fine Arts, where she developed a distinctive visual language rooted in the exploration of memory, urban landscapes, and the interplay between light and shadow. Her work often draws inspiration from the vibrant streetscapes and cultural tapestry of Spanish cities, blending abstract elements with subtly evocative figurative forms.

Over the past decade, Poletto’s art has been exhibited in several solo and group exhibitions throughout Spain and internationally, earning acclaim for its poetic depth and innovative use of materials. Utilizing both traditional and experimental techniques, she initiates a dialogue between the personal and the collective, reflecting on themes of identity, transformation, and the persistence of the past in contemporary life. Her creative process is informed by a deep engagement with literature, music, and everyday encounters, resulting in evocative works that invite viewers to reflect on their own narratives and perceptions.
