Stefania Salles Bruins
Through art, I embrace the absurdity of being thrown into existence as conscious living creatures. We did not consent to come into existence, and any reason for life remains a mystery. Within the chaos of existential dread, I encountered consolation in creating my purpose - continuous growth. We can choose to live intentionally so that we can die feeling grateful. The practice of painting allows me to keep learning every day. Human interactions, ranging from our relationships with our own subconscious to relationships with each other, fascinate me. The compositions in my paintings originate from an analysis of moments in my life that I've had the hardest time processing. Diving into cultural idioms, stories, and philosophical texts, I wrestle with the feelings that keep me up at night.
