Mariana Horgan
Artist from Portugal
In her studio practice the artist mixes painting, drawing, sculpting, collage and raw forms of etching such as monoprinting and woodcut. Always finding beauty in the unconventional and with a keen interest on recycling waste, don´t be surprised to find her digging in garbage at construction sites or "treasure hunting" at the beach for objects and materials that catch her eye and meet some of her ideas.She's most inspired by everyday life, people and nature, with maybe the sea in the spotlight; but her previous experiences in live, childhood memories, loss and a consequent "joie de vivre" that coexists with a certain melancholy also tend to appear on many of her work. Constantly playing with colour and texture in this hide and seek game, her pieces often reveal a sense of calmness, peace and light when finished, although many times there are emotional storms and chaos in the under layers. Her work comes many times as calming and enlightening to her collectors.
