Statement
Mirela Fioresy is a Brazilian artist whose work explores the invisible threads shaping individual and collective experiences, particularly how environments, systems, and ideologies influence how we perceive ourselves and each other.
She is drawn to what unites us: the shared substance and the collective consciousness underlying human experience. In a world marked by fragmentation, she confronts prejudice in all its forms, combining materials and techniques to reveal contradictions, the beauty in coexistence, and to invite reflection and connection.
GlogauAIR Project
‘Water and Oil Don’t Mix’ is both the title and the premise of this project. One of the first rules we learn in painting becomes my starting point; in this project I layer oil and liquid acrylic on the same ground and let their refusal to blend steer the work, as pigments push, repel, and settle into unplanned forms. The collision is both process and meaning, a study of tension, separation, and uneasy coexistence. The outcome is a series of mixed-media paintings and brief process videos, a meditation on contradiction and a fragile truce between opposites.
