Naroa, Graduated in Fine Arts at the Basque Country University, has an intense and experimental career in the world of traditional art. She now seeks the beginning of a new artistic stage by integrating digital techniques and media in her work.
​
Naroa's artistic work is created from an ongoing life-long search for a transcendental understanding of the balance of life. This search is reflected in her work both individually, with each painting, and collectively, with the integration of digital animations made on the photographs of her paintings.
In this search for balance, she constantly plays with polarised elements such as movement and stillness, visual noise and silence, the abrupt and the subtle, asymmetry, depth and lightness, seriousness and humor, the spiritual and the mundane.
