Maria Isabel Ballester is one of Mallorcas most well-known artists. She works with what moves her. Her work is very sentimental. The situations, with the reality that moves her. It is an expressionist style. The faces are essential. It is all there, the expression, the feeling, the wound. Perhaps the first feeling is sadness but after sadness, when you take the second look you see something else. There are some poetic tenderness and hope. Poetry has always been very close to her. It has been a great source of inspiration and she has managed to convey it into her art.
