Valeria Pesce - HEAVENLY KOI

HEAVENLY KOI
Koi fish, these elegant Japanese creatures, drift lightly with their sinuous movements in crystal-clear waters. The fish as a universal archetypal element, as a connecting thread between diverse worlds, as an expression of the flow of life and of emotions. Fast and fleeting as clouds and thoughts, they embody the delicate balance between serenity and the vital impulse. The green water that contains them, an amniotic space in constant movement. I am interested in the boundary between the real world and the surreal world of my aquatic landscapes in constant transformation.

About Me
Born in Italy, on the island of Sardinia, in 1963, after stays in New York to study graphic design and later in Milan, I moved to Barcelona in 1991 to work as a graphic designer. It was here that I began my artistic career, which over time has become my profession, my passion, and above all, a vital necessity.

I have held solo and group exhibitions in various European cities, and my works are part of private collections around the world.
My work is deeply rooted in nature and human emotions; my main theme is water and fish, two visual universes that share symbolic intensity. The fascination with the fluidity and dynamism of water acts as a guiding thread in my creations and symbolizes constant transformation.
