Karla Herencia’s work addresses environmental degradation, inspired by the coastal landscapes of Puntarenas. She collects discarded plastic and industrial debris, inspiring paintings, sculptures and mixed-media installations that reflect on the complex relationship between human invention and nature.
Influenced by the shifting oceanic and tectonic dynamics of her environment, Herencia explores themes of the body, territory, and environmental crisis.
Herencia’s Peruvian heritage influences her sensitivity to primitive materials and ritualistic aesthetics. Her installations combine socio-political critique with emotional responses to environmental issues.
“La Montaña”, an abstract mountain painting, presents a solid blue and black form, resembling a mountain, cut through by strands of pastel yellow and blue that blend into the abstract background. The bold shape evokes a sense of grounding and stability, while the soft colors around it suggest a cosmic or spiritual dimension.
The contrast between the solid mountain and the ethereal surroundings balances earthly presence and transcendence. This abstract mountain painting reflects Herencia’s exploration of nature and spirituality through abstract forms.
