Marcel·la Barceló's (b.1992, Palma de Majorca, Spain; lives in Paris, France) paintings and drawings invite us into a series of dreamlike scenes that she describes as “mindscapes.” Growing up on the island of Majorca, Marcel·la’s deep connection to nature—especially the sea and the mountains—has profoundly shaped her work. Her paintings explore an eco-spiritual vision of the natural world and humanity’s relationship to it, often mediated by eerie, solitary figures.
Her work has been presented in numerous exhibitions both in France and internationally. She participated in the Biennale de Dessin Contemporain de Paris in 2014 and was Awarded the Prix du Dessin Contemporain of the Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2015. Her work can be found in the collections of the Foundation Louis Vuitton (France), Xiao Museum (China), Museum of Contemporary Art of Ibiza (Spain), Cabinet de Dessin des Beaux- Arts de Paris (France), Foundation Guerlain (France), Fonds de Dotation Emerige (France) among others.
