Some people say that artistic
ability and even sensitivity, the fact of "being an artist", is something that can be achieved by
learning or studying.
It is true that these features
can shape or rather complement artistic activity and that one should be
grateful for the support and help of a teacher; however, one must be born with concern
and sensitivity for art.
Proof of this, and a clear
example, is the case of the Colombian artist Catalina Muñoz, who, despite her condition (Silver Russel syndrome), shows that her talent is natural and it
originates from the desire that every artist has to reflect personal experiences
and emotions in a particular way.
Her work is characterised by a
simple but resounding language, as well as shades that attract the viewer. The
world that she introduces to us constitutes a daily positive view with regards
to the existential and the microcosm surrounding it.
The message conveyed by this
artist to society is a true sign of praise.
