Natalia Nicole Rodriguez / Verano Tropical II

Natalia Rodriguez' alias 2BLEENE (pronounced in Spanish as “doble-ene”) was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and currently lives and works throughout Europe.

Her work is an expressive contemporary abstraction between her encounters with flowers, nature, and her years of experience as a graphic designer. Natalia's process begins with documenting floral elements in her environment and travels to then transform them into long lasting memories, palettes, and textures. 

2BLEENE's admiration for flowers and nature itself began many years ago in her grandmother’s garden, that was filled with flowers and various tropical plants. Over the years, she became dedicated to the idea of creating her own interpretation of nature, which ultimately resulted in a subconscious desire to discover new flowers and plants each day.
