Woolff Gallery are thrilled to present Valéria Nascimento’s solo exhibition 'DRIFT' opening on Saturday 14th Sept in association with London Design Festival 2019.
Valéria Nascimento is a creative pioneer in the world of ceramic art, creating seemingly weightless artworks from tiny, hand-made delicate porcelain pieces.
Effortlessly beautiful and elegant, Valéria Nascimento’s exceptional artworks consist of hundreds of porcelain elements which are arranged in powerful and harmonious compositions linking nature and abstraction in ethereal-seeming formations. Through her unique artwork she translates the delicacy of the natural world into timeless, organic, and contemporary porcelain artworks. Nascimento has created work for luxury brands such as Chanel, Wedgewood, Escada Fashion House, Tiffany and Co’s stores. She has collaborated with many interior designers and architects and has created a large-scale installation for Spring Restaurant at Somerset House, London.
“Growing up in Brazil, surrounded by exhuberant nature, inspired me to embark on an artistic career. A degree in architecture helped me to cement a visual language, an eye for detail and an understanding of physical space. For as long as I can remember I have always been fascinatedwith repetitive sequencing in my work, combining separate elements to form a cohesive group. I aim to create works that inspire, connect and touch in an emotional way, taking the viewer on a journey through different ethereal, botanical and peaceful landscapes.” VALÉRIA NASCIMENTO
