JULIANA PLEXXO (Colombia 1993)
Juliana Plexxo (1993) is a Colombian-born artist living in Barcelona who
has made a significant impact on the art world. Raised in Quito, Ecuador,
her passion for visual arts began at an early age, inspired by esteemed
painter Oswaldo Guayasamín. Plexxo’s artistic exploration extends to the
divine and mystical essence of bulls, her favorite animal, emphasizing
their nobility and presence.
From a young age, Juliana was captivated by the majesty of bulls, a
fascination deeply rooted in her upbringing since the age of four. Her
father, a renowned journalist and bullfighting chronicler, instilled in her a
profound admiration for these animals, despite being silenced by the
violence in Colombia during the 1990s. Her earliest memories are
intertwined with the faces and eyes of these magnificent creatures,
symbolizing strength and nobility. Juliana’s interpretations transform the
bull into a divine, mystical, and noble being, reflecting the emotional
intensity and imposing presence she perceived since childhood.
