Visual Art – Edmonton
After realizing she was living her life to fulfill the expectations of otherst, Sofia began a journey of self discovery which included taking a powerful healing ceremonial plant medicine where she received clarity about her purpose on this planet – to add beauty to the world, to experience, and to express. In 2016 she began to explore painting and quickly became obsessed with how colour interacts to evoke a response of awe and wonder in others.
Sofia now uses her intuition to create large dynamic abstract pieces using inks, acrylics, and other mediums in resin. Her work takes on mesmerizing depth as colours and textures overlap in transparent layers to resemble stereoscopic images. She makes art as an extension of who she is at the core of her being and uses it to convey the fluid nature of emotion. Sofia has exhibited in pop-ups at Art Gallery of Alberta, Latitude 53, and has been represented by Syndicate Gallery and Fallen Leaf Gallery.
