For over a decade, Colombian contemporary artist Carolina Piedrahita has been developing a distinctive presence in the world of geometric abstract art and contemporary abstract painting. Working under her artistic identity Capiro Art, her practice explores the limitless possibilities of geometry, form, and spatial perception. Piedrahita draws inspiration from the dynamic relationship between shape, colour, and dimension, believing that forms transform entirely depending on their position and perspective. Her signature technique involves applying acrylic on wood, where she constructs meticulously crafted relief figures from the same material, creating textured mixed-media abstract artworks. This approach gives her paintings a sculptural, three-dimensional presence, inviting viewers to experience her modern abstract art through both visual depth and tactile complexity.

A self-taught contemporary artist, Piedrahita’s artistic journey is shaped by both passion and disciplined exploration. Her formal education in Biology and Advertising & Marketing provides a unique perspective that informs her work. Her understanding of biological structures introduces an organic precision to her geometric abstract compositions, while her background in marketing strengthens her ability to communicate visually with clarity and emotional resonance. While currently balancing her professional career as a publicist, she continues to dedicate herself to painting with the goal of becoming a full-time artist, supported by her family and driven by a deep commitment to creative practice.

Piedrahita’s innovative approach to contemporary abstract art has earned her growing international recognition. Her work has been showcased in prominent European art spaces, including Art3f Paris in Paris, France (2023) and Exposición Meraki at Monat Gallery in Madrid, Spain, where her vibrant geometric compositions captivated audiences and collectors alike. These international exhibitions have helped establish her as an emerging voice in the Latin American abstract art scene, confirming the global appeal of her geometric abstract paintings and their resonance with collectors seeking bold, contemporary works.
