Maura Polano (b. 1999) is a promising young painter, working in a distinct magical-realist style. She is interested in human psychology and visual storytelling. Maura draws inspiration from literature, children's stories, myths and personal experiences.
Her latest oil paintings comprise compositions drawn from the arrangement of wax models. These scale models serve to create a shadow-play. Maura's paintings evoke an uncanny atmosphere through the dramatic patterning of light and shadow.
At age fifteen, she enrolled in the Orientation Year at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam. After completing her A-levels at the age of eighteen, she moved to London, where she studied Painting at the University of the Arts London (UAL). In 2018, she was the recipient of the prestigious Worshipful Company of Painters-Stainers’ Scholarship. In 2020, she moved to Ghent (Belgium), where she completed her studies at the The Royal Academy of Fine Arts (KASK). She is currently based in Haarlem, the Netherlands.
