About the Artist
KAMILA MARRERO

Hometown

Fort Lauderdale

Charcoal, oil, acrylics, pastel             

 

Influence

My art practice was influenced by several great artists like Kathe  Kollwitz, Nicolai Fechin, Ilya Repin.                 

 

Emotions in work

I explore emotional presence in my work—within human figures as well as in objects and spaces—treating them as living fields where feeling and atmosphere reside."        

 

If my art could speak it would say, “Stay with what you feel—there is life in it, even when it has no words.”               

 

Art & Mental Health

Art creates space for people to recognize and process their inner states, fostering connection, empathy, and a sense of not being alone.         

 

Something surprising about me is I returned to art after years of running a hospitality family business, rebuilding my identity from the ground up.
