Naia Ceschin
Naia Ceschin's processes incorporate walking, drawing, photography, and writing, with the intention of crafting distinct languages for each interaction. Her work functions as a response to the accelerated pace of contemporary life. Every stroke drawn and every canvas painted serves as a declaration of being present and exercising patience. Each step is a conscious choice, a deliberate movement, a means of observing the present moment and delving into intricacies.
She engages with the natural world, immersing herself in instances of contemplation and the perception of these environments. Landscapes, botanical forms, and color harmonies are captured through her lens. Naia collects fragments such as bark and dried leaves, meticulously exploring their contours, proposing novel arrangements, forms, and finishes. Within each drawing lies an unearthing of revelations, unveiling fresh avenues during the creative process. The interplay between micro and macro elements of nature melds contemplative spaces with personal recollections.
Geometry emerges as her conduit for rendering complexity, extracting outlines from life encounters and translating them into novel idioms. Whether in painting, tapestry, or their fusion, she investigates the synergy and augmentation of these two mediums.
