Magaby Cabreio
Magaby Cabreio, Colombian artist, studied in Bogotá, Colombia and Italy. Has exhibited extensively in Colombia, France, Spain and the USA
The artist’s major influences are her fascination with water and its movement, and her commitment to the environment. Her large format canvasses are highly textured works using a mixture of oils and sand to create pieces that are almost three-dimensional. Most recently she has been using a travelling exhibition of installation art to raise awareness of environmental issues.
