ABOUT
Vvii is a self-taught, emerging artist based in Miami. Gravitating towards monochromatic and tonal color palettes, her intention is to bring a sense of peace and understated beauty to a space. Drawn to the history of ancient symbolism, traditions, and the wisdom of the Hebrew language, she delicately peppers subtle hints of such imagery in contrast to her abstract contemporary works. She revels in letting these details be revealed when up close, as though sharing with her audience a secret or hidden power. Her art explores the relationship between perspective and light; the obscured and the illuminated. She plays with various layers to attract viewers in closer, in order to discover more beyond the surface.
Grateful for her diverse background, growing up in downtown Montreal, she attributes her unique point of view to her Spanish, Moroccan, and Eastern European heritage. Later, having spent over a decade living and working as an interior designer in New York City, Vvii’s honed design eye has been key to successfully pairing her art appropriately with her clients’ spaces, selecting and commissioning the best complementary color schemes and dimensions.
As a synesthete, who sometimes mixes her senses, Vvii jokes that she is inspired by everything and anything, from music and dance, to scents, to tennis, to even how sea turtles find their way back home after hatching on the shore. Somehow, through patience and trust in the process, she blends seemingly disconnected elements and influences together into a serendipitously cohesive painting. In letting go of expected outcomes, she’s learned to trust that she’ll end up in a place of fulfillment and happiness. Her hope is that this great sense of trust in herself will, somehow, by osmosis, transfer to those whose gaze fall upon her art, so that they too, if need be, can begin to gain a greater trust in themselves.
In a time where there are so many, often, conflicting messages and frequencies, she takes joy in offering uplifting and peaceful images to balance things out. If she had only one word to describe her art, as well as her view on this life, she would say that everything beautiful is always motivated by love in the end.
