June 20 to July 6 Art exhibition by Paula Marco in Yecla

Trazos de Alma at the Casa Municipal de Cultura in Yecla

A collection of remarkable pencil drawings by artist Paula Marco can be visited at the Casa Municipal de Cultura in Yecla from 20^th June to 6^th July, featuring a series of hugely detailed drawings including expressive faces and also portraits of famous personalities such as Gandalf, Minerva McGonagall and Simone Biles.

The images are being displayed together under the title of “Trazos de Alma”.

Paula Marco was born in Yecla 32 years ago the eldest of 12 brothers and sisters, and confesses to a troubled past after spending long periods receiving psychiatric treatment which resulted in her losing much of her memory.

In consequence, her “real” memories begin, she says as recently as early 2023, when she began to learn how to read, write and draw again. Supported by those closest to her, she dedicates this exhibition to all of them, especially her family, her teacher and her psychologist.

Trazos de Alma contains remarkably detailed drawings and can be seen at the Casa de la Cultura in Yecla (Plaza Mayor, 1) on weekdays from 9.00 to 13.00 and 17.00 to 20.00 and on Saturdays from 9.00 to 13.00.
