MYRNA QUIÑONEZ (b. 1987, Sinaloa, Mexico) studied at the University of Guanajuato and currently lives and works in Bristol, United Kingdom.

Myrna Quiñonez is a painter whose work incorporates traditional oil painting techniques and digital tools. She revisits places significant to her surroundings, from the River Wye, the seascapes of Cornwall, to the landscapes of Los Mochis in Sinaloa, where she is from. However, these locations become disconnected from their origins, blending into imaginary places and spaces. Her visual manipulation suggests the transitory nature of our temporal relationship with place while also referencing the rapid-fire semiotic procession of imagery.

Her landscapes exist in a dual state, they are both “no place” and “every place,” shaped by the timeless themes of the pastoral and the idyllic, as seen throughout the history of landscape painting. She draws from artists like John Constable and José María Velasco, among others. At the same time, she deconstructs the landscape, introducing small fractures that hint at a sense of disconnection or a fragmented perception of the natural world.

Quiñonez has exhibited her work in over fifty exhibitions and some of her most recent presentations include:

Solo show: The Horizon Pulled Me Close (2024), BEERS London Gallery. Group shows: POST-card (2026), Noble and Common Gallery, Worcester; Visual Language: Vistas (2025), Subliminal Projects Gallery, LA; Through the Bridge (2025), Iron Gallery, Chicago; Landscape, Reimagined (2024), BEERS London Gallery & Saatchi Gallery, London.
