About the artist

Cristina Del Hoyo is a Denver based artist who is originally from Spain. Cristina was born in Malaga, Spain in 1986. As a teenager, she began exploring different artistic disciplines such as painting, photography and sculpture. When Cristina was 17, she moved to Granada, Spain to study fine arts. The artist received her Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts from the University of Granada, Spain, in 2009.  After she graduated, she moved to Denver, CO and has been living there since then. Her art has been featured in exhibits in Madrid, New York City, Denver, Paris and Milan. 

 

Cristina’s artwork is inspired by her personal experiences and is intended to be a bridge between the inside and outside worlds. In her early works, she explored the idea of conflict and raw emotions through the use of color and texture in her paintings. Now, she is interested in abstract shapes, geometry, minimalism and the intensity and power of color. Her works reflect the ideas of search for meaning, belonging, identity and the complexity of human emotional connections. 

​

During her time in Colorado, she has accomplished various artistic projects such as staging private houses, commissioning art pieces for clients, art consultation, and coordination of two murals at Avanti f&b in Denver. ​
