CAITY SALAMANCA: CON-NEC-TIV-I-TY

Caity Salamanca identifies as an introverted observer. As a child, she found communication through words challenging, even dull and unappealing at times. Eventually, she discovered her true form of expression through drawing, which marked the beginning of her creative journey and shaped her perspective on the world. Today, that perspective is conveyed through her sculptural paintings. Throughout her artistic journey, Salamanca has explored diverse mediums including ceramics and photography. After experimenting with different painting styles, she developed a distinctive voice that combines techniques she has honed over the years—from smooth color transitions to rich textured layers. Her mark-making process serves as a visual language, built upon a lifetime of experiences, observations, and intuition. Her work has been shown at the Blue Mountain Gallery in New York City, Made In California 2024, Brea Gallery, in La Brea, CA, Reflections of Us (Juror Sergio Gomez) Warnes Contemporary, in Brooklyn, NY, and Metal Haus Gallery, in San Francisco, CA.
