Revillagigedo Palace
Alba Escayo 🔹 2nd floor - corridor 7 🔹
Graduated in Fine Arts from the Complutense University, she continues her postgraduate studies in Bologna and Belgrade.
Escayo lives in Madrid and frequently participates in international exhibitions and projects. Collaborations with other artists and institutions have led her to work frequently in Singapore and the Balkans.
In his painting he explores mixed techniques and new media to capture vibrant works in which references to nature and landscape are often distinguished. In his work there is a hybridization of natural and cultural symbols and we find a harmonious magma of icons, abstract strokes, words and graphics.
"I have painted places and moments to return to. As if with painting you could jump in time, but in a peculiar way: dancing from moment to moment and with strokes that are everything experienced, that become entangled in colors."
Flavia Robalo 🔸 2nd floor - corridor 5 🔸
His work is characterized by careful attention to form and texture, allowing him to create sculptures that seem to have a life of their own.
Flavia has exhibited her works in various galleries and museums around the world, including: Italy, Spain, Germany, France, Portugal, Brazil and Argentina. His sculptures have been the subject of numerous publications and his work has been recognized with several awards.
He continues to explore new techniques and materials in his quest to create sculptures that reflect the beauty and complexity of human life. His work continues to inspire artists and art lovers around the world.
"With great sculptural skill, Flavio Robalo creates an atmospherically dense cosmos centered on female figures that seem dreamlike and immersed in themselves. In formal terms, he develops his protagonists in the field of tension between movement and pause. Behind each work hides a fictional story. The artistic interest lies not so much in the story itself, in the representation of certain incidents, but in the exploration and visualization of deep human emotions such as vulnerability, strength, freedom or loneliness." .
