Lucila Viso
Lucila Viso is a French painter of Argentinian origin, born in Santa Fe.
Trained in Literature and Fine Arts in her hometown, she moved to Paris in 1974, where she has lived and worked ever since.
His work is part of a demanding pictorial research, nourished by memory, silence and a constant attention to matter.
Lucila Viso's painting favours restraint, depth and balance, far removed from any illustrative narrative.
She develops a personal visual language, based on the tension between presence and erasure, structure and vibration.
His work has been featured in numerous group exhibitions in France and internationally.
She has a lasting artistic relationship with Japan, where her work has been recognized on several occasions.
For Lucila Viso, painting is an act of continuity: a way of keeping the world at a distance while fully inhabiting it.

INSPIRATIONS
“I like to suggest, to let the image ‘form itself,’ intervening only to echo it, opening a space and a language that rises from deeper layers, making visible what the eye overlooks. Like a journal, my images compose a narrative — the story of my inner journey — and inevitably become both witness and consequence of the way I look at the world.”
