Pablo Picasso said; “every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.”
I’m Nova, the face behind NovArt.
The name NovArt is a celebration of the little girl in me and the playfulness, braveness and curiosity we often have as children.
The freedom of expressing myself trough colors, form and sensations as a nonverbal, open expression is a joyful and necessary passion of mine. The very best moments of artmaking is the time when I just let myself flow into whatever I need to express without overthinking, controling or focusing on the outfall.
I use and mix whatever I find useful in my paintings, as in mixed media art. The expression of my art is not about perfection but rather of the energy in the piece. I’m a fan of “perfection is in the imperfection.” Both in art and living. We try, we fail and we learn. I’m experimenting. Sometimes I make a mess, other times a powerful artwork.
My background is from design and marketing. I also have serveral art courses, among others from Art2life with Nicolas Wilton, a great teacher and the founder of art2life.
JUWELRY-DESIGN
From early age I had a passion for jewelry. My first pair of earrings were big, gold plated with turquoise stones. I still love that bohemian style.
My design is inspired from the 30’thies, a mix of bohemian and empire-style. I use different materials, natural stones and it goes under the category bisutería. Hopefully I’ll be able to work more with silver in a more suitable studio in the future.
“Less is more” is a saying in design. With statement jewelry, each piece is powerful and might shine brighter than an overloaded mix.
MY VISION
Since a was little I’ve been attracted to the universe, the unknown, the invisible. The connection between humans and the space. I wondered what was out there and how we are affected by it.
When in creative flow, with no sense of room or time, connected to a deeper, free, intuitive part, the expression often has a cosmic expression. My work as a theraphist and interest in human behavier and emotions can often be seen in my art. Overcoming the fear of expressing those things makes my art more free, more me.
The energy from this space within is honest and authentic and what I wish to share with the world. That’s my vision. To share what I create from authenticity.
