Begoña Lafuente, a versatile artist, traces her creative journey back to her graphic design roots in Madrid during the 1990s. Her early career as a graphic designer, art director, and illustrator laid the foundation for a remarkable fusion of classical education in Fine Arts with contemporary artistic trends.
In 2009, she embarked on a transformative chapter by relocating to the Netherlands, immersing herself in the vibrant local art scene. This shift allowed her to infuse her art with fresh perspectives while incorporating elements from the Spanish school. Begoña's work is a captivating blend of techniques, including painting, collage, drawing, photography, scans, and monoprints.
Central to her art is the exploration of the human spirit, symbolized through thematic contrasts, vibrant colour play, and the interplay of organic forms with geometric shapes, all mirroring the ever-evolving nature of existence. Her portfolio also features innovative reinterpretations of iconic works from art history, offering a contemporary lens on timeless classics.
Begoña actively engages in local and international art exhibitions, sharing her artistic vision with a global audience. Her pieces have found homes in private collections across Europe and the United States. She draws inspiration from her studio by the picturesque North Sea in the Netherlands.
