Artchat recently caught up with Conchita Carambano about her upcoming exhibition at Red Hill Gallery in December and to learn a little more about her.
Conchita Carambano has a strong sense of involvement with her paintings; her brisk, deft technique is very distinctive. She pushes inventiveness to the limit with her abstract forms and shapes through the sensual use of space, colour and symmetry.
