about
"I see the landscape as a cultural identifier that stems from the collective experiences that we share in natural spaces. There is a psychological significance, a sense of home, that the places that have been, in one way or another, sacred to each of us live on in the form of memory. A phenomenon familiar to the poetry of abstraction – as details fade, reflection grows. Like the spiritual impermanence and uncontrolled transformation you find in flowing water, or the weather."
Cami Galofre is a Colombian contemporary painter & based in Denver, CO.
Galofre grew up in Quito, Ecuador, surrounded by pacific coastlines, Andean mountains, and Amazonian rainforests. In 2009, she relocated to the US and spent the following years exploring the American West, where she fell in love with the landscape. She holds a BA in Studio Art & Environmental Science from Colorado College (2013) and a MFA from Arizona State University (2018). With a national and international exhibition record, Galofre currently lives in Colorado, while teaching at the Community College of Denver and El Museo de las Americas.
