Carmela Alvar Beltrán (Madrid, 1989) has a degree in Fine Arts, with a Master's Degree in Artistic Production and is currently doing her doctoral thesis "Archeology of the found object" at the Polytechnic University of Valencia. He has made research stays in Milan and Cuenca and the plastic conclusion of this work has led to the individual exhibition "Haciendo Memoria" in different venues of the Antonio Pérez Foundation Museum. His work has been exhibited in Madrid, Valencia, Alicante, Badajoz, Cuenca, etc. His work was focused for a long time in painting, until he discovered the possibilities of collage. This incessant treasure seeker turns the found objects into small works with their own stories.
