Luciana Hermida | artist
I put together dreamy, whimsical scenes with the aim to detach us from reality; through juxtaposition of elements and the embrace of mysterious encounters I question what is possible and highlight feelings of peacefulness in a world where things don’t make sense.
I portray imaginative freedom and a love for the natural world and the organic forms. My art conveys surreal scenes with a unique Latin American feel, reflected in the brightly coloured palette and the vibrant eclectic natural elements. My art is a celebration of nature.
As a mixed media artist, I use a variety of techniques to create my art, from photography, drawing, painting with acrylics, collage and digital photomontage.
I believe that through fascination and wonder we can have a more spiritual connection with the natural world. Diving deep not only means to me a place of stillness, but somewhere to experience joy and awe expressed in the most unusual -and colourful- ways.
Welcome to my alternative universe.
