In 2016, an anthological exhibition of the work of the painter Victoria Cano was held at the Centro del Carmen in Valencia. The exhibition was entitled Ecos y huellas.Desde el Trastevere al Carmenand it was sponsored by the Consorci de Museusde la GeneralitatValenciana. It brought recognition to the long and distinguished career of one of the best contemporary Spanish artists. Victoria Cano's talent allowed her to enjoy a two-year research scholarship at the Academia Española de Bellas Artes de Roma in the early 80's. During her stay (1981-1983), Victoria Cano was the only woman to be awarded the scholarship, the rest of students were all men. Cano earned a PhD in Fine Arts (1988) and shortly after was named Professor at the School of Fine Arts in Valencia. Since 1988 her career trajectory has included a multitude of national and international shows. Her works have been exhibited in China, South Korea, New York, Murano, Milan, Rome, Berlin and Bangladesh. We met the artist at her studio, interviewed her and studied her work. This article aims at reviewing the fundamental milestones of her artistic itinerary and revealing the essence of her artistic production.    KEYWORDS: Victoria Cano; Footprints; Senses; Nature; Environment; New Technologies; Human Beings; Gender Violence; Profiles; Roots; City.
