Artist and curator
Elisa Carreno
Based in Berlin
A Brazilian artist working across painting, collage, and installation.
Elisa Carreno is a Brazilian artist and curator. Her work gives material form to emotions and experiences that resist easy verbal expression.
Across painting, collage, and installation, Carreno explores sensory memory, cultural traces, repetition, and ordinary rituals. She works intuitively, letting colour, form, and material direct each piece as it develops.
Her Brazilian background surfaces in vivid colour, abstraction, and organic shapes that recall tropical plant life. These compositions create sensory encounters in which familiarity and joy coexist with vulnerability and connection.
