Raquel García Hofmann is a visual artist specializing in oil painting, whose work explores unfinished architecture and transforming urban landscapes as metaphors for transience.

A graduate in Fine Arts from the University of La Laguna, she has been recognized in several plein air painting competitions and is establishing herself as a leading voice in contemporary painting in the Canary Islands.
