Japanese culture holds an essential place in Lucila Viso’s imagination.
More than an aesthetic reference, it embodies a way of thinking about the world in which art, gesture, and everyday life are never separate. Her attention to the present moment, to restraint in movement, and to inhabited simplicity shapes her gaze.

Classical Japanese poetry — capable of capturing the ephemeral and giving form to what passes — resonates deeply with her pictorial approach. The writings of Murasaki Shikibu, with their sensitivity to time and fleeting emotions, are among these foundational resonances.

Within this heritage, art is not a separate object, but a discreet presence woven into daily life.
This continuity between creation and existence runs through Lucila Viso’s work and is particularly evident in certain series where color, rhythm, and silence play a central role.

The Purple Series bears witness to this influence, both in its palette and in its relationship to temporality, inviting the viewer into a slow, attentive, almost meditative experience.
