About The Artwork
42"X36" Gold Plated Process and Hand Stitching on Canvas. The pictorial surface has different layers of metals being the top, gold. Each layer altered the reflective properties on the work to this incredible reflective and captivating surface. My first inspirations with precious metals derive from my personal heritage that is intimately involved with both pre-Columbian gold and shamanism. Those traditions inspired in me an impetus to create, in the belief that the glitter of gold transmits a magical and fertilizing energy to humanity. My research in both traditions brought me to a fascination with the dynamism of monochrome metallic surfaces. The findings allow me to codify and translate my work into a new metaphysics of the painted surface and toward a new form of abstraction. This abstraction is embodied in the optically perceived phenomena of the pictorial surface. Ambient light, colors, shapes and movements continuously morph into an ever-changing, ever-captivating imagery. Indeed these works can spark, inspire and give both energy and calmness to the viewer. Terranova's works are in corporate and private collections and his exhibits extend to domestic and international galleries and museums. Terranova is originally from Colombia. He lives and works in New York City. He holds a M.Arch degree from Rhode Island School of Design and a B.Arch degree from The New York Institute of Technology.

United States
Born in Cali, Colombia, Eduardo Terranova studied architecture and design at Rhode Island School of Design. His works are known for his reflective and rich-surface visuals. Terranova’s evolving techniques incorporate plaster, burlap, hand stitching, and precious metals that transform two-dimensional surfaces into sculptural works that flawlessly integrate art, design and craft. Architecture, entropy, landscape and socio-dichotomies are “built” together in his works as light, shadows and an infinity of scintillations emerge to become then, the subject matter of the new relief-like works. The use of gold, inspired by the pre-Columbian artworks gives Terranova the impetus to create, in the belief that the glitter of metals is more than mere reflections, more than optically perceived phenomena. Terranova’s work has been exhibited in many galleries in the United States, Europe and Latin America. He lives and works in New York City.
