Studio Incognito
The Art of Vania Noverca Viveiros
“Art is an expression of oneself and should always be shared with others.”
“As an artist, one is often asked to provide a Biography and an Artist Statement when invited to a Gallery or Show. I truly do understand the intent; but I must admit that I personally feel that in order to know an artist, one must learn who we are through our reflections, and look beyond our shadows! Who, what, when and why, how are we inspired; each and every creation is a mere reflection of all these things collectively.”

Amy Araujo
“We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep.” William James. Nichols 184.
My work is about my humanity. A reflection of my human experiences. I believe there is a oneness that connects us all and enables each of us the capacity to feel beyond our own individual experiences and connect to ones outside ourselves. Experiences can be universal. My drawings are driven from a series of events that took place in a 4 year time span and evolve into a narrative. The self-portraits are an exploration of myself; a contemplation of the feelings, thoughts and emotions attached to particular memories of experiences. My creative work is directed by repeated questions and thoughts to be addressed, confronted and resolved. The drawing becomes a response.
