travel love heart

Teissi Aranda, is an argentinian plastic artist.

After a 10-year training in architecture, visual arts, and specialized in pictorial media and technologies, she proposes her first Solo exhibition, where she relates between challenging and dramatic palettes saturated of color, diverse stories of her travels.

Stories that invite the viewer to feel the energies and rebuild their own stories through those peculiar characters.  

We are a world full of travelers, where in each country, we can find similarities and differences, but after all we are the same essence.

What does it mean to recycle?  Over the past few months AWA Artists let their imaginations take over and set themselves a challenge to reimagine their art and creative process to produce art works using recycled materials.  Each Artist was presented with an item to incorporate in an art piece while also developing other work along the theme…reimagine, reinvent and recycle.

memory of trees

  • Read more about memory of trees

Masks have been here since the beginnings of our time so too has an innate knowledge that trees share our world and like us are living beings. I have combined masks and trees and created a cadre of characters connecting us with nature. We see a mask and look upon ourselves. The mask has the ability to suspend the viewer’s sense of reality where questions arise. We might ask “Where do these creatures come from, how do they live, what does it see in me?”

dilogical - two dimensional artwork that hints at a third dimension

  • Read more about dilogical - two dimensional artwork that hints at a third dimension

Having originally trained and worked as an industrial designer, and from a family of architects, Amanda has a brain that thinks in three dimensions - it’s in her genes and it influences her artwork. She likes to play with the viewer’s perception of form even when working on a flat plane, using both real and suggested shadows to achieve this. Her work could be described as geometric abstraction, though she finds it hard to put a label on it. If you come to the exhibition she would love you to tell her how you would label it!
