Thinkspace Projects is pleased to present Inward, their fourth solo exhibition with artist Cinta Vidal showcasing 14 new works on canvas and 6 new works on paper. Vidal (b. 1982 Spain) was originally trained as a theater painter, but when the illusionary space of the stage became too confining, she turned to urban landscapes and used large facades and cityscapes as canvases in which she dissolves perspective, space and time. Vidal uses acrylic paint on canvas and paper to create what she describes as her “un-gravity constructions.” She paints each artwork with close attention to detail, fully realizing each structure and the unfolding scenes within. Vidal’s combination of saturation, detail, and balance work together to allow the viewer’s gaze to absorb these various and often intersecting viewpoints.
"The word “Inward” speaks to both layers of interiority: the shared indoor spaces we inhabit, and the private, inward-facing state we enter when we disconnect from what surrounds us. A sofa becomes a place of quiet retreat. Even in the presence of others, the attention turns inward—to thought, memory, or simply stillness. These scenes reflect that subtle coexistence: being together, yet each within their own space.” —Cinta Vidal
