In the studio, Malu will develop an abstract series of 28 cardboard circles painted one by one, day by day over the 28 days of residence, focusing on menstrual and lunar cycles.

"I developed my work to create my own original, abstract language based on experimentation with materials found in everyday use.
My interest is in basic images. In late 2009, I began to investigate the foundations of contemporary painting (large-scale changes from the Academy; the Impressionists).
My current work is the transformation of Claude Monet's oil paintings, turning the works into a territory of optics using chromatic and textural experimentation."
