Delsy Rubio
Visual artist Delsy Rubio was born in Maracaibo, Venezuela, where she completed her
studies in art and design at the "Julio Arraga" School of Fine Arts (1979-1985). Her love
for art from an early age provided her with a prolific career as a designer, an
experience she projects with a unique style in her current work. She created the
graphic identity of the International Art and Antiques Fair of Maracaibo (FIAAM) in
Venezuela (2004-2011). In 2011, she began her exploration in geometric abstraction.
She develops her work with various technologies and techniques, using automotive
acrylic lacquer on wood and the transfer of translucent pigments at high temperatures
onto aluminum, achieving optical effects of light and reflection. She also employs other materials in their pure state to highlight them through shapes. Her art focuses on the study of volume and multi-level forms, based on intangible themes; it explores the perfect geometry of nature and its relationship with humanity and the universe.
Her modular designs show a harmonious connection of lines with space, creating imaginary
projections in motion under the influence of light. She has received numerous
recognitions, including awards at the Chess in Art Salon in Venezuela and the Origins in
Geometry Biennial in Dallas, TX. Her art is exhibited internationally in galleries,
museums, and art fairs in Venezuela, the United States, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain,
and Peru. It can also be appreciated in private collections around the world and in
permanent exhibitions in her showroom.
