Madi (b.1987) is currently living in Lisbon, Portugal. She develops her own style through graphic research, combining painting and mural techniques.
As an artist, she tries to evolve constantly. Before, her work was predominantly black and white, full of meticulous details. Now, she immerses herself in a colorful process of production, less controlled, spontaneous and more instinctive. This means her creative process is strongly influenced by the concept of spontaneity. Her production of drawings is obsessive, a reflection of the journey through her mind. This results in the depiction of imaginary characters, textures, sensations, dreams, and fantasies.
It is an intimate and endearing process. She paints because she needs to. The viewer enjoys the creation of a private universe, free from any boundaries. As if she is searching for absolute peace, a goal which can only be fulfilled by the act of painting.
