"Empowerment, fight and unity! The path to the recognition and visibility of the black woman, from the humble look of Afrofeminism, the strength of color and the line, draws faces for the black people referents."

Montserrat Anguiano is a Spanish painter and poet, considered one of the referents of Afrodescendent art of our time. In 2001 she created a concept of art and performance. Image, word and voice dance and deepen in the plastic abstraction. Drinking from figurativism, it portrays the beauty of woman, body and soul, which capture the expression in her eyes.

Montserrat Anguiano was born in Esplugues de Llobregat (Barcelona) in 1982. Created between science professors, She was educated at the School of Arts and Crafts of Barcelona (2001-2003). She is currently a student at the Instituto Barcelonés (Real Cercle Artísti de Barcelona), where she is expanding her knowledge.

After a few years of focusing on the representation of women, in 2015 she gave a significant turn to her career, evolving towards activism and the demand for the rights and recognition of Afrodescendant, Black and African women. "Empowerment, fight and unity! The path to the recognition and visibility of the black woman, from the humble look of Afrofeminism, the strength of color and the line, draws faces for the black people referents."

In 2016 he joined the divulgative and reclamation project Black Barcelona and Black Referentes in Barcelona, to assist in the diffusion of African and Afro-descendant culture in Europe, reaffirming in his blackness, representing the voiceless.

My work is primary, it is denunciation and it is commitment to the black people, with those women who seem to be forgotten. They are vivid colors, expressiveness through form, drawing and color. I started with blue, red, yellow and black. Primary colors, since work from the root and the origin. I am currently evolving into shades that reflect our homeland.".

It shows the black woman empowered and rotundly beautiful and colossal.

"As a result of personal circumstances, painting became therapeutic, which has become professionalized. Not only is it an impulse to heal, heal wounds, it's creativity. It has to be the engine to create a legacy, my legacy. I want other women, like me, to find an outlet to reaffirm their identity.

Opening up paths for other black artists in the shade. Montserrat is vitalist, honest, strong and with a spirit of struggle and criticism, in this society that conforms.

"I am inspired by each of the women I meet in my life, women who with their eyes tell you stories, feelings, tell you the truth. Deep in their eyes, looks, and stealing states, gestures ... I am inspired by great women too, successful, enterprising, hardworking, educated, wise. As the honored Bisila Bokoko, currently my mentor, I also think of Shirley Cambell, brilliant poetess both references for our youth, for our girls, for all. I am inspired by the ambition for change and to be happy."

From 2016 to the present, she has been exhibiting and disseminating his work through emblematic exhibition halls in Barcelona, Valencia, Madrid, even reaching Malabo, Equatorial Guinea. In 2018 it has closed events and exhibitions at an international level.

"Little by little, without hurry but with effectiveness, the people recognize my art, because it is characteristic. They recognize my brand, my seal, my identity, and to achieve that, it's great and rewarding."
