MARIA ISABEL BALLESTER
María Isabel Ballester is a sculptor with an extensive curriculum of exhibitions in different countries around the world. Born in Argentina, she moved to Mallorca in 1979 where she began to dedicate herself to sculpture and where she has grown professionally to become a reference in Mallorcan and international sculpture.
Inspired by everything that moves her, with the human being as a central theme, she creates deeply emotional work, full of feelings. Maintaining a continuous dialogue with different materials and very old techniques, she expresses her way of seeing and feeling everything that human beings experience. Openly without beating around the bush.
"Hope" is a personal vision of one of the essential human feelings, especially in this time of confusion and sorrow. With wounds uncovered, with all the burden that makes us small and suffocates us, the only way is the way of love, of union and of the hope to reach it.
