Claudia Trongmo
Born in Lisbon, Portugal, Claudia is a self-taught Artist who worked over two decades in the technology field, lived in England for 10 years and travelled the world until she moved back to Portugal.
In her remote home in Alentejo south Portugal time slows and the earth speaks, her paintings are an emotional connection between herself and the raw landscape of the region. Blending paint, creating layers and textures on both canvas and paper, she takes in the land’s rhythm and palette of the seasons to inspire her. Each piece is unique, a reimagined abstract landscape, a dialogue between nature and Artist, mental health and with the echoes of her lived experiences.
Claudia spends her days surrounded by nature, books, husband and young son and their two rescue Podengo dogs.
