The Artist
Malena
The body leaves a trace.
Malena works with the body as a trace: in gesture, in the surface, and in the way light rests on matter. Red, dark passages and gold become a language of closeness, change and self-possession.
Maison Malena is the painting space of Malena. Each encounter begins with the work itself and leaves room for a response that belongs to its viewer.

What the surface holds.
These nine works bring different forms of presence into view. A hand leaves its mark. A mirror returns a gaze. A fragment of shed skin holds the memory of a form outgrown. The materials carry the story alongside the painted gesture.
