Biography

Mónica Jover's work is primarily structured through painting, with a strong emphasis on color. Over the years, her artistic evolution has led her to look back at her origins, a process that has guided her towards incorporating new techniques and materials into her current artistic research.

Her works reveal a strong influence of textiles and the use of thread as a central element. Initially, thread appeared subtly as a complement to the painting itself, but later it became an independent component, materializing into expanded painting.

Her deeply introspective artistic practice explores the nature of being through pieces that connect with an intimate landscape of nature, inviting reflection on the conscious construction of the self.

We look forward to seeing you at ‘By Invitation’ with Mónica Jover Calvo and Ivan Forcadell.

SELTZ by Ritter Ferrer will take part from November 6 to 9 in By Invitation, the modern and contemporary art fair held at the Círculo Ecuestre in Barcelona.

In the Palacete section, Mónica Jover Calvo presents a selection of works and a thread installation created specifically for the event, blending pictorial lyricism with technical experimentation. Her practice, focused on painting yet deeply influenced by the textile field and the use of thread as an essential element, is marked by an introspective sensitivity that explores the nature of being.

In addition, visitors can also enjoy a selection of works by Ivan Forcadell, whose vibrant and irreverent aesthetic—featuring bold colours and an open narrative—is always ready to engage playfully with the viewer.

The sixth edition of this fair revolves around the concept “Lines of Time”, a reflection on time as a fabric that connects generations, geographies, and imaginaries.
