Where my day starts. I wonder where did my breakfast cup come from, why is the handle like this, who designed the handle, when, how, what…. What if?

Digital print created in collaboration with inspired by the idea of interconnectedness — how thoughts, bodies, and meanings exist side by side, overlapping, fragmenting, and finding each other again. This piece explores dialogue, perception, and the invisible threads that bind us, even when we feel divided.

Unique Work

Luisa Mascaró is an interdisciplinary practitioner, printmaker, and painter whose work also extends into ceramics and sculpture. She experiments with various techniques and expresses herself using a wide range of materials and processes. Through the intuitive nature of her work the element of discovery is of most significance, allowing accidents and mistakes to occur. Although, sometimes she deliberately provoke them, her interest is to develop flexible thinking and to improve her visual language challenging at the same time the hegemony of the two-dimensional art disciplines.
Often her interest is revolving around the simplification of abstract forms that arise from the interpretation of the figurative image. A process that, she believes, allows the viewer to make their own interpretation of a piece of art. She strives to create a space where the public can interact with their imagination and realize the fictionality of the perception created by our unconscious.
Her work is an ever-evolving process, it can start with collages made up of discarded defective prints, or it can derive from collected, exhibition, ephemera. She manipulates the elements, dissolves, pushes, pulls, deconstructs, constructs, and collapses the image resulting in a process of constant abstraction and figuration. Sometimes she doesn’t have a preconceived idea it’s a call-and-response outcome.

Sarah Chalkie Cloonan - Collaborator, Floating Fingers, 2025. Chalkie, a multidisciplinary artist trained with Luisa at the R.C.A. and Camberwell . It was here they started a praxis of collaboration and correspondence. Chalkie like Luisa responds to the curious in the every day and believes it is for the viewer to make their own interpretation. Currently she is responding to Luisa’s work using words to activate the images underlying messages.
