Inma Escrich's work is characterized by a contemporary figuration of great visual strength, focused on the representation of the body and identity through a realistic yet vibrant language. Her compositions are usually based on recognizable images that the artist transforms through an intense chromatic treatment and a careful attention to textures. In her paintings coexist technical virtuosity, visible in the modeling of the skin or fabrics, with a taste for the decorative and symbolic, reflected in colorful backgrounds and graphic elements that provide a pop and current air.

Inma Escrich is a Spanish painter who began her artistic training at an early age with the painter Vicente Castelló, later expanding her studies in various workshops in her hometown and at the School of Arts and Crafts in Castellón. Later he completed his apprenticeship with Pere Ribera, a stage in which his work incorporated imaginary and abstract elements that, although they did not have direct continuity, enriched his plastic sensibility. For several years he combined his artistic practice with work in ceramic design workshops, participating with his own designs and drawings in major international fairs such as Cevisama (Valencia) and Cersaie (Bologna). After this stage, he decided to abandon industrial design to devote himself exclusively to painting, resuming a personal production and beginning to exhibit his work in exhibitions.
