ALICIA MARTÍN
ABOUT
(b. 1982, Plasencia, Spain)
Alicia Martín is a painter who excels in interpreting and dissecting matter, translating its organic properties into harmonious pictorial compositions. Her work, premeditated yet open to what the material suggests, results in complex, layered pieces where light, volume, and chromatic range create a veil that captures a fleeting moment. She explores the concept of natural entropy and matter’s transformation, starting with figurative elements and deconstructing them into chaos and reconstruction.

PAST EXHIBITIONS
VIBRANT MATTER
September 2024 - March 2025
Alicia Martín López explores a redefined abstraction that balances organic unpredictability with structural precision. Working without sketches, she engages directly with the material, producing tactile, otherworldly compositions that feel simultaneously digital and hand-wrought. Her works—often described as sculptural paintings—evoke the birth of form, liminality, and “mattering” as theorized by Karen Barad. In Exactitude and the Void, Martín López invites viewers into a cosmos of folds, textures, and speculative forms that speak to the vitality of matter, the aesthetics of indeterminacy, and the uncanny clarity of abstraction at the edge of the visible.
EVENTS
ENEAS
June 2025
Madrid, Spain
ENEAS was a one-night collective exhibition curated by Saisho in collaboration with Eneaverso.
Held in Madrid, it brought together 21 contemporary artists and over 600 guests—including collectors, curators, and critics—in a multisensory journey through eight levels of artistic experimentation: from composition and material to light, texture, and technique. Inspired by the myth of Aeneas and structured around curatorial criteria rather than trends, ENEAS marked a new approach to experiencing and valuing contemporary art.
