Finnish Fine Art Celebrates Her Art Among Brazilian Artists

 

The exhibition “From Me to the Stars,” on display since February 24th, had its opening marked by an emotional vernissage that brought together artists, guests, and contemporary art enthusiasts. The exhibition features a remarkable solo show with the special presence of Finnish artist Eva Rossi Kivimaki, whose international trajectory enriches the poetic and sensitive proposal of the exhibition.

 

The exhibition remains open to the public until March 24th at Espaço Art Cultura e Design, curated by Célia Rachel, providing visitors with a unique artistic experience where sensitivity, matter, and expression meet in a profound dialogue with the symbolic universe of stars and human interiority.

 

Born in Finland in 1954, Eva Rossi Kivimäki holds a Master's degree in Philology and began her artistic career in the early 1990s in Miami, working with stained glass, a technique that began as a hobby and quickly became her main activity. Her first major work was completed in 1999, with the creation of the stained-glass windows for the chapel in the official residence of the Emeritus Catholic Archbishop of Miami.

 

In 2005, she held her first solo exhibition in Finland, where she also presented wall panels produced using the Tiffany method, utilizing opaque glass and semi-precious stones, materials that have become an essential part of her artistic language.

 

Over time, the artist began working with mosaics, seeking to use increasingly smaller pieces and explore new expressive possibilities. In her current technique, she has replaced traditional mortar with a special glue, which allows her to fill the spaces with the material itself—such as crushed pyrite, transformed into a texture similar to sand—in addition to making the works lighter and more delicate.

 

 

Eva's creative process often begins with the title of the work, from which she develops the composition. The artist dedicates herself to the challenge of transforming abstract ideas into visual forms, using what she calls "treasures of the depths"—elements of earth and water—to give concrete form to symbolic concepts. The exhibition “From Me to the Stars” thus reveals an artistic universe where matter and poetry unite, inviting the public on a contemplative journey that connects art, nature, and imagination.

 Brazilian fine art stands out for enhancing the beauty of the  Goiás's Cerrado region 

Mariah Campolina is a fine art with a strong presence in Brasília's cultural scene, recognized for her intense and almost visceral dedication to representing the Cerrado biome. In her work, nature appears not only as landscape, but as a living, pulsating, and deeply respected element. Her painting stems from a radical connection with the natural environment, revealing a sensitive and committed gaze towards the organic essence of the earth, the leaves, the flowers, and the colors that define the biome.

In portraying the Cerrado, Campolina works with subtlety and delicacy in each stroke, constructing compositions that impress with their harmony between impressionism and realism. Her canvases seem to breathe, leading the viewer to an almost sensory experience, in which it is possible to feel the texture of the vegetation, the light that passes through the branches, and the silent force of nature. Those who observe her art often find themselves in a moment of profound contemplation, as if time slowed down before the beauty presented. Her organic work translates respect for life and the Brazilian landscape, transforming simple elements of the Cerrado into grand and moving scenes. With a striking and sensitive style, Mariah Campolina doesn't just paint nature—she reveals it in its most poetic form, leaving the audience breathless before the intensity and beauty that emerge from each canvas.
