Iva Viana |
Topázio is a wealth of knowledge, at each stall there is a master. As soon as I visited for the first time I knew I wanted to explore the techniques as much as possible. In a way I felt like I was a bit at home, with my work also being so linked to an older art and technique, the art of Stucco. |
Captivated by traditional stucco modeling techniques, Iva Viana develops and executes, in her studio, pieces and objects that arise both from her fascination with the heritage of Portuguese master plasterers and from the desire to reinterpret it. His work mainly includes decorative plasters, but also commissioned sculpture projects and creative personal works. Areas where male artists traditionally predominate, and to which he imparts a unique feminine sensitivity, exploring an aesthetic and conceptual language, where fragments of the past coexist side by side with aspects of contemporary imagery. |
