GERALDINE MOLIA

My work explores the tension between organic abstraction and geometric precision. I use drawing, watercolor, and gold or copper leaf to create compositions that evoke the organic rhythms of nature—then deliberately disrupt them with metallic geometric forms. These shimmering shapes introduce a visual and conceptual contrast, reflecting the interplay between natural environments and constructed spaces.

​

My background in architecture deeply informs this dialogue. I am fascinated by how built structures shape our perceptions and behaviors—often subtly and unconsciously. In my practice, abstraction becomes a metaphor for nature: intuitive, emotional, and free. The geometric elements, by contrast, represent the rationality and control embedded in architectural design.

​

Mindfulness and contemplation guide my creative process. I aim to create quiet, textured works that encourage a slower pace of looking—inviting viewers to engage more attentively with their environment and consider the subtle structures, both personal and collective, that shape our experience.

​

Through this layered practice, I aim to spark dialogue about how we inhabit and interpret our surroundings—and how art can foster greater awareness of our place within the environments we shape and share.​
