About this artwork

Retro Miaw explores themes of identity, attitude, and contemporary femininity through a cinematic composition inspired by vintage aesthetics. The setting inside a classic car contrasts with the subject’s modern presence, creating a dialogue between past and present.

Through careful attention to light, texture, and expression, the work seeks to capture both strength and individuality, presenting the figure as confident, self-aware, and unapologetically… present.

This artwork is part of the permanent collection of the MEAM in Barcelona Spain.

Gerardo Monroy is a Mexican figurative painter working primarily in oil and charcoal, with a solid background in classical fine arts training and extensive independent study. He masterfully employs techniques rooted in Old Master traditions—layered oil painting, dramatic chiaroscuro, and meticulous anatomical observation—while infusing his work with a contemporary sensibility. His paintings evoke deep emotional resonance, conveying vulnerability, strength, and introspection that invite intimate reflection and universal connection.
