Carla Romero is a Miami-based artist who communicates her experiences through layered and vibrant abstractions. Her process challenges the surface-level narratives of constant positivity, inviting viewers to embrace the complexity and honesty of their emotions.

Beginning with darker, heavier tones and evolving into vibrant, colorful details, Carla’s pieces reflect the interplay of struggle and resilience by blending acrylic, pastels, crayons, and, more recently, oil.

Her practice is a personal reflection of life’s complexities, expressing and unveiling what is often too difficult to articulate. Carla’s goal is to create work that invites viewers to feel both the weight and beauty of being human, offering them a space of comfort and understanding.
