About Natapart

Natapart is a creative project by Melbourne based artist and designer Natalia Pelaez. who goes under the artistic pseudonym of Natapart. She uses watercolour, acrylic, mix media and digital art to create signature wall art for contemporary homes as well as unique stationery.  She is known for her abstract takes on Uluru and other Australian inspired creations. She mostly uses earth tones to depict the colours of the land and the feminine.

Natapart is originally from Colombia. Also a professional visual designer, she plays with many ideas around the practice of design: the use of negative space, the tension created by an edge, oversized shapes, the power of contrast and framing, and clean minimalistic layouts. Her approach to art is experimental and adventurous. She enjoys the process as much as the final result. Sometimes great things come out of so called “accidents”, and as an artist she allows for this to happen and embraces it as an active part of the composition.

INSPIRATION

ART STATEMENT

In my paintings, I’m interested in how a thing or place feels rather that how it looks.  An essential part of my painting experience is letting my intuitive eye guide me. I’m not so interested in the details but the overall feeling and mood. As a viewer also I like to feel art.

My current work revolves around 3 main axis: Australian inspired landscapes, abstract watercolour explorations of value range that deconstruct shapes into ovals and mixed media pieces depicting flora and fauna.

Essential aspects of my art practice are the simplification of forms, the forging of my own visual vocabulary, the translation of colour into my own uniquely mixed palette and the juxtaposition of the seemingly opposite: matte vs. transparent, tiny vs big, simple vs. complex and controlled vs. free.
