Cristina de Miguel

Cristina de Miguel is a Spanish artist known for her dynamic, expressive paintings that blur the line between form and spontaneity. Educated at the University of Seville and Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, her work often features fluid female figures, mermaids, and mythic creatures that merge with their surroundings. Influenced by sources ranging from ancient artifacts to Baroque painting and modern social media, she emphasizes the physical act of painting, often working on the floor so her whole body becomes part of the process. Her neo-expressionist style and strong material presence have led to exhibitions in New York, Athens, Mallorca, and beyond.
