Artist Statement:
One attraction of Vera Costa's
work is its organic theme and
its concept of opposites -
internal/external,
body/spirit, human/universal
energies. These organic forms
are positioned outside of a
body, seeming to float in
space, or they are presented
as if seen through a
microscope lens. The
circle/oval forms represent
beginning and end, finite and
eternal. The red color
symbolizes life force, the
energy coursing through the
body, physicality.
She always is inspired by the
human body, especially the
inside view of that and the
transient cycle of life. In
her most recent works she uses
styrofoam to shape organic
forms that she glues on canvas
or board to create hybrid
paintings, often rendered in a
red and/or white palette.
