Paula-Rosa

Paula  Rosa is a designer and visual artist living and working in Lisbon. She  showed an early interest for the Visual Arts and Design, which proceeded  naturally in her academic training. She graduated from University  Lusófona in Equipment and Space Design and from Jean Piaget Institute in  Design and Production's Management of Pedagogical Media.  Fascinated by the Visual Arts, from painting to film animation, she has  held several solo exhibitions, in Portugal and in the U.S.A, and  participated in group exhibitions all over the world. Her work is  represented in private collections, museums and institutions in Portugal  and abroad.

​

Combining  the technical rigour with the inner chaos of inspiration, Paula Rosa  sublimates in the emerging digital art, taken with no prejudice nor  frontiers, through the most recent technologies. She divides her  activity by an art made of brushes and the discipline of Design; a  dualistic option that marks her work and its route.

​

Paula  Rosa's painting merges the tangible medium of technology with the  untangible magic of imagination and dreams. Her work transports us into  surreal landscapes and solitary images that stir the emotions of anyone  who has ever found themselves empty, lonely or in despair.  She fuses natural and mechanical constructions to explore new and  recurring philosophical themes. Her images are thought-provoking and hit  at the very core of emotion... in that place where dreams lie and lies  torture and joy manages to creep through rocks like persistent little  wild flowers.
