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.”

Encaustic Artist

Creation begins with a memory, an impactful moment, or a found object that tells a story. The layers of wax are applied, altered, and built so that the piece takes on its’ own reason for being.

When I begin a piece I may start with a found object I want to build a story around, or a memory of a time or place I wish to preserve by melding images together. I progress at the beginning by building my surfaces with a plan in mind but through the process I allow surprises to create new directions and in the end the art work tells its’ own story.

Education

• BFA Swain School of Design, New Bedford, MA
• MAE Rhode Island School of Design, Providence RI

Past Affiliations

• Member of SWFL chapter of the International Encaustic Artists
