Bio:
The Artist have been travelling the last five years to different countries at Africa, Asia, America and Europe, to be able to study the local Culture of each special place she decide to visit, and in this way be able to add this knowledge to her future Exhibitions. Her studies are directed to the Mythology and Religions,and also to the daily life, custom and ancestral tradition that are still alive, in combinations with the ones that are use in our time, with a mixture of the present and the past times. The Artist have one of her studios at Stockhom City,Sweden, being a member of the KKV ( Artist Asociation at Stockholm City). In the same way, she also have a studio at Beijing city,China and at Lima, Peru. 1991 - 1997 Creation, Direction,and Conduction Atelier of painting, drawing and sculpture Guide to the formation of young and adult artists Lima, Peru.
"Bronze is the most enduring of metals for casting statues because of its beautiful colour that matures with time. Bronze allows the statue to be touched so the form of the work can felt just as the artist felt ir during its creation.
Maria Elena uses bronze in her most effective series os cast statues-The Angels. Each Angel has a slender and graceful human form but is balanced by the strong presence from their expressive and perhaps symbolic poses.
The anatomical form of the Angels stems from the Maria Elena's extensive knowledge of human anatomy, which is fundamental to creating such imposing statuary. The skill is reflected in the variety of expressive and naturalistic poses-from the authoritative pointing Angel to the weary, resting Angel. Each has grace and movement where you an believe that the Angels have souls, which is a reflection of the artist's skill. Maria Elena has achieved in bronze a beautiful balance of form, movement and expression creating bronze that speak-the Angels live up to their name" Nigel Meeks Member of the Research Department British Museum, London, England 1998

Artist statement:
Art is a means to express what we feel or have experienced during the time of our existence. Using different techniques and materials we can transmit what we feel, live and observe in our own, distinctive way. After examining ourselves and meditating, the details of our existence and the existence of the people around us, strong feelings emerge that allow us to convey them into the creation of art. But not without the necessary studies and effort that is required to adequately communicate what we desire. Experiences recorded in our personality enable us to become storytellers of our own ideas and the ideas of others. In my case, I am fortunate that through my travels, I have met many people and learned about many cultures that have inspired me and have enriched my personal anecdote. To communicate in our work, the time we are living and show others the differences that exists with people is an ideal that has led me to different paths in life. Art is the mirror of the soul... of your soul and mine ....of our gaze.
