Razel Gonzales – Artist Biography

Razel Gonzales is a multidisciplinary artist and mental trainer whose work is a dialogue between the inner emotional landscape and the forces of nature. Born in a humble fishing village by the sea, Razel grew up as the daughter of a fisherman. With limited resources, traditional art materials were a luxury—but the shoreline became her studio, and the ocean her first and lifelong muse.

Her early practice began in the sand, using her hands to sketch waves, sunsets, and imagined worlds. The impermanence of her first artworks, washed away with each tide, became symbolic of the spiritual and emotional release art could offer—a belief that continues to inform her creative process today.

Razel’s work has been exhibited internationally in cities such as New York, Tokyo, Paris, Berlin, Madrid, and across Austria, where she was selected in 2015 as one of 42 artists to exhibit alongside the renowned Austrian master Ernst Fuchs. Her art is recognized for its emotional depth, organic forms, and intuitive storytelling—blending elements of surrealism, nature mysticism, and inner healing.

At Razel’s most recent solo exhibition in Innsbruck, Austria, the atmosphere was elevated by the presence of Heinrich Neisser, once the Second President of the Austrian National Council, and Herwig van Staa, former Governor of Tyrol and President of its State Parliament—figures whose stature echoed the significance of the work on display. The event was also featured in Tiroler Tageszeitung, underscoring its cultural relevance in the region.
