Madola is a multifaceted artist who trained at the Escola Massana and gained a PhD in sculpture from the Facultat de Belles Arts at the Universitat de Barcelona. Her extensive career, both as an artist and a theorist, is noted for her work with ceramics, in which she has continued the work initiated by Josep Llorens Artigas and Antoni Cumella. Through the use of new artistic languages, without abandoning the discipline’s cultural roots, she models her works by playing with the plasticity of clay, the colour, volume and form, and projects the figure onto the space, where she creates a symbolic atmosphere based on her own experiences. She has held solo and collective exhibitions around the world. Her artwork features in permanent exhibitions at several museums and she also has large-format works in urban spaces. She has received many awards throughout her artistic career, such as the prize for the best exhibition at the Salvador Espriu Centenary, awarded by the Generalitat de Catalunya in 2015.
