As the title suggests, these extraordinary artists explore the intersectional spaces between the real and the supernatural, where both realms coexist in a productive tension. Throughout the history of thought, humanity has sought to reconcile these two planes: from mythical cosmogonies that explain the visible world through invisible forces to scientific pursuits aimed at elucidating phenomena once considered supernatural. In this sense, Allegories of the Real and the Supernatural can be interpreted as an invitation to rethink our own experiences—the boundaries between what we can know and what remains shrouded in mystery. In the works associated with this title, there is perhaps a suggestion that the mystical is not separate from everyday life but rather intertwined with it, offering new ways of understanding the world.

The selection of works exemplifies her profound mastery of abstract painting intertwined with a deep commitment to environmental advocacy. It also reveals a resonant fusion of culture, memory, and ecological consciousness.
