Mariel Andrade is a Brazilian American contemporary painter.
Exploring themes of duality that convey elements of myth, humor, and nostalgia.
Her paintings are an illusion of one reality versus another. Using a saturated or
pastel palette so that subject & color create a confusing paradox.
Everyone has vastly different memories and secrets that they carry; her work plays
with one's perception to spark the viewers sense of psychology and evoke the
enigma within.
She is currently based in Seattle, WA
