컬렉션: Pepa Reverter
Pepa Reverter wants to live in a better and kinder world, so she consciously creates work that inspires us to do so. She graduated in printing from the School of Applied Arts in Llotja, followed by a degree in sculpture from the Faculty of Fine Arts in Barcelona and, finally, a master's degree in video and television production and realization at the Polytechnic University of Barcelona. An academic exploration from some of the oldest to the most modern forms of communication, a journey linked by the timeless need to make sense of the world through art and stories. Along the way she was lucky enough to study with some of the great teachers; she working for Jaume Coscuella and Magí Baleta, engravers of the work of Joan Miró, Jaume Plensa, Xavier Grau and García Sevilla.
She has worked in many mediums as a visual artist, illustrator, designer, potter, teacher, photographer, and videographer. Among her professional positions; she working at TV3, illustrating for the International Herald Tribune, designing ceramic pieces for Bosa, artworks for BD Barcelona and many other intermediate roles. She frequently collaborates with her partner, Ramón Úbeda, with whom she created her impressive shared study space in the 22 @ district of Barcelona.
Her ability to alternate and merge many mediums gives substance and fascinating depth to her work, always exhilarating. It can be tough with a different social message, or sometimes ethereal and delicate and other times exuberantly cheerful, with a fierce, feminine energy. Her Sisters collection of female heads combines elegant, sculptural shapes and delicately rendered finishes that pay tribute to women of all cultures. Female artists and activists such as Louise Bourgeois, Frida Khalo, Helen Frankenthaler or Clara Campoamor, who give names to the pieces in this collection that represents many of the key themes of Pepa's work: each piece begins as a sketch, then a painting, before of becoming a sculptural vase, a process that allows you to experiment throughout and explore the multiple meanings that the Sisters represent in both form and meaning.
Purposeful creativity is what motivates her explorations with color and shape, creating a mood, invoking a memory, or eliciting an emotional reaction as important as function. She captures the spontaneity and enthusiasm that is usually lost after childhood, keeping a fresh and open-minded approach to each new project. Her studio is a place of joyful creativity where she continues to work in various media and disciplines and with the brands, companies and collaborators that move and inspire her.
