Longings

Marisu Solís Camino (Avilés, Asturias, 1957) is a Spanish contemporary artist whose practice encompasses painting, collage, and small-format sculptures created with recycled materials and papier-mâché. Her work focuses on abstract landscapes as a field of aesthetic and emotional exploration, where color, matter, and free gesture build distinctive visual universes.

Trained at the San Fernando School of Fine Arts in Madrid (1977–1982), her career of more than four decades combines pictorial research with material experimentation. Her painting, characterized by chromatic intensity and gestural freedom, dialogues with the memory of landscape and the openness of creative process. Through collage and sculpture with humble, sustainable materials, she expands her artistic language, generating new forms of expression filled with freshness and authenticity.

With more than 34 exhibitions across Spain, her work has captured the attention of critics and collectors alike. Today, her artworks are part of private and institutional collections in the United States, Europe, and Asia, confirming her international presence within Spanish contemporary art.

She divides her life and creative process between Madrid and her studio-home in San Martín de Podes (Asturias), where the Atlantic landscape and surrounding nature remain essential sources of inspiration.

Her work appeals to collectors and art enthusiasts interested in contemporary abstract painting, collage, and small-format sculpture, offering a unique aesthetic experience that connects nature’s essence with the freedom and emotion of the artistic gesture.
