Marianela Pérez

Marianela Pérez is a Venezuelan visual artist working in painting and photography. Born and raised in Caracas, her early exposure to tropical colors influenced her vibrant aesthetic. She studied Commercial Art at Endicott College (Massachusetts) and Environmental Design at the Villasmil de León Institute (Caracas), followed by further training in painting and photography in both Venezuela and Florida.

Her early gestural paintings referenced vegetation, later evolving into digital collages with urban themes. Photography became central to her process, informing her current abstract-geometric style, which draws from urban and natural environments. Since 2001—and more actively since 2009—she has exhibited her work in solo and group shows. After moving to Miami in 2017, she deepened her exploration of geometric abstraction to express her personal interpretation of reality.
