Eilena Braye (b. 1988) is a multidisciplinary artist and pathologist whose
work seamlessly bridges the worlds of science and abstraction. With a
deep fascination for cell biology, histology, and the invisible mechanisms
that sustain life, Eilena transforms her microscopic observations into striking
visual compositions that evoke both scientific precision and emotional
resonance.
Having trained in medicine with a specialisation in pathology, Eilena quickly
recognised that the rigours of scientific inquiry alone could not fulfil her need
for creative expression. Art became her means of exploration—an avenue
to give shape to the unseen, merging analytical rigor with an emotional
depth that speaks to the heart.
Her work has been showcased in renowned galleries and venues, with
notable exhibitions in Switzerland and Monaco. Eilena is represented by
Galerie Renaissance in Geneva and Luc Sarraf Ward in Monaco. Beyond the
traditional art world, she collaborates with leading brands and institutions,
including Carlsberg, where she created large-scale murals for La Folie
Douce in Val d’Isère, France.
Eilena Braye’s artistic approach harmoniously combines precision with
spontaneity, mirroring the complex world she examines as both a pathologist
and an artist. Working primarily with acrylics and mixed media on canvas,
she skilfully layers colour and texture to capture the depth, fluidity, and
organic nature of life at its most microscopic. Each piece is an exploration
into the unseen, a reflection of the intricate interplay between science and
emotion that defines her creative journey.
