About

The work of Amaya Iturri (Donosti) reflects on universal themes, with a fascination of the interplay of colour and form. Drawing from her surroundings and diverse cultural influences, her artworks presents themselves with a strong dichotomy between colour and theme, valuing the artistic expression as an engine for social change
