Marianela Holly
Visual Artist
Marianela’s upbringing was amidst walls decorated with copies of Renaissance Period paintings. They awakened a curiosity, and she was intrigued by its complexities. NELA Contemporary Art results from Marianela’s search to combine traditional art with contemporary graphics. After working as an artist for over 20 years and falling in love with Pop Art, she decided to bring back those masterpieces with a modern edge.
She deeply believes that art is directly associated with visual communication. Her art holds unexpected and intricate messages. Color impressions, great textures, and acrylic paint blend to create dynamic pieces. She has created a series of contemporary artwork and photography, which convey the way she perceives art and the world.
