Ximena Armas

Ximena Armas (born 29 July 1946 in Santiago, Chile) is a Chilean painter.

[1] Since 1969, she has participated in numerous group and solo exhibitions in Chile, France, Spain, and Mexico.

Nothing is revealed; all is instead veiled with ribbons and bands, hemmed with curtains, burrowed beneath a mass of stones.

One is struck at once by their odd composition, made of striped bands, ruffled feathers, or beach huts.

The artist plays at staging over and over again the familiar elements of her dreamlike world, thus totally mastering space and swamping it with symbols.
