Daniela Ribeiro - My World: Sun, Moon and Earth

About

alpha gallery is delighted to present Daniela Ribeiro's Sun, Moon and Earth. In this particular collection, Daniela Ribeiro depicts a dreamlike vision of the world, a mature consciousness raised from an uncontaminated point of view reminiscent of that of a child. Her large compositions immerse the viewer into another space, an ethereal atmosphere. We recognize the fiery colours of the sunset and the cool tones of the ocean, inspired by her childhood spent in Luanda. Daniela is inspired by African visual culture, which is deeply rooted in her identity. We gladly navigate within her world, lost in the Universe, surrounded by glittering and glistening planets, meticulously organised into a transcendent chromatic constellation. Her technique, complicated and physically very laborious, combines light with density, and the movement in the mixture of the materials allows the artist to explore new forms to depict these celestial presences.
