Carla Fache

B. 1977 Santiago, Chile

Lives and works between Miami and Santiago

Carla Fache is a Chilean-born, Miami-based visual artist whose practice revolves around an intense exploration of the frontiers of color. For Fache, color is not merely a formal concern but an essential force: it is both subject and medium, a channel through which energy, vibration, and transcendence converge. Her canvases establish a distinctive visual language, weaving together commanding fields of color and tactile textures to reveal powerful links with higher dimensions. Each painting operates as a portal, inviting the viewer to cross into timeless realities that feel at once personal and universal.

Her trajectory includes a dynamic range of exhibitions in the United States and abroad. Recent presentations of her work include the Fondazione Giorgio Cini in Venice, the Florida Museum for Women Artists, the Celeste Prize exhibition at The Invisible Dog Art Center in New York, the Armory Art Center in Palm Beach, the Cambridge Art Association in Boston, Locus Projects, and the All-Media Juried Biennial at the Art and Culture Center of Hollywood. In addition, her paintings have been shown at institutions such as the Cisneros Fontanals Arts Foundation, The Bass Museum of Art, the Deering Estate at Cutler, the Lowe Art Museum, the Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami, and the Coral Gables Museum, among others.

Fache’s work has been featured in a wide range of international publications, including Celeste Prize International Book 2011 (New York), New York Art Collectors Book (NY), Five Centuries of Art (Los Angeles), Libro de Arte Ibero Americano Contemporáneo (Argentina), Studio Visit Magazine, New American Paintings, Ojo Andino (Chile, Luciano Benetton Collection), as well as in Miami Herald, El Nuevo Herald, Knight Arts, Miami New Times, SunPost, and Sun-Sentinel.

Her paintings are held in significant private and corporate collections, reflecting a growing recognition of her unique vision. Since 2011, she has maintained her studio at the Fountainhead Residency Studio Program in Miami, where she continues to develop a practice that situates her firmly within the discourse of contemporary abstraction while expanding its possibilities.
