Opening tonight in New York, Leila Heller is pleased to announce Ana D’ Castro’s solo show “Efflorescence: Variations on Color.” Ana’s works are an embodiment of how color speaks the language of the soul, expressing deep emotions and connections through beautiful waltzes of colorful fragments dancing through the canvas. Each of her projects creates a kinetic immersion into a sensorial world of colors, wherein the visitors become a part of the artwork itself. Her work is analogous to a tridimensional fusion of art, architecture and the dimension of time, which is added by audiences’ trajectory in space around the artwork. “Efflorescence: Variations on Colors” is composed of a series of abstract paintings that aim to represent the pictorial evolution and a creative path associated with the artist’s conceptual narrative, through a systematic progression of moments that are translated into canvas starting from a calm and peaceful framework and evolving into an apogee of color outburst.
