Aire Calderón (b.1990, San Jose Costa Rica) Lives and works in Costa Rica.
Aire Calderón channels her artistic expression through the medium of oil painting. Her creative odyssey is an ongoing exploration of the human form, with a particular emphasis on portraying the female body by masterfully manipulating light and shadow.
In her portraiture, Calderón endeavors to capture not merely the physical likeness of her subjects but also the essence of femininity itself—embracing its nuances of strength and vulnerability. Through her skilled use of light and shadow, she imbues her subjects with a sense of depth and presence, revealing both their tangible and intangible qualities.
More recently, Calderón has embarked on an artistic journey centered around the theme of water. Through a series of paintings featuring women submerged beneath its surface, she delves into the symbolism and significance of water in relation to the female form. Through fragmented depictions of figures immersed in aquatic realms, she explores themes of fluidity, transformation, and introspection.
