The Brain and The Heart: An Exploration of Connection "The Brain and The Heart" is a pair of unique artworks exploring the intrinsic connections between people. Crafted with metal chains and found objects, these pieces embrace the organic beauty of rust, allowing its natural progression to imprint on paper. This process creates a visual narrative about the transient nature of existence and inevitable decay. The materials and techniques used are deeply symbolic. Rust, with its rich, earthy tones and textures, represents decay and transformation. It serves as a metaphor for the disintegration of materialism over time, reminding viewers of the impermanence that characterizes modern industrial life. Each artwork is framed in custom-made metal frames, rusted to match the aesthetic of the pieces. The addition of glass preserves the integrity of the artwork while allowing viewers to appreciate the intricate details. The creative process behind "The Brain and The Heart" is intuitive and exploratory. By accelerating the natural rusting process, the artist embeds the essence of decay directly onto the paper, creating a dynamic interplay between control and spontaneity. This method ensures that each print is singular and unrepeatable, making each piece truly one-of-a-kind. Despite being a print, the specific nature of rust printing means no two pieces are identical. Each artwork has its own distinct pattern of rust and texture, capturing a unique moment in the material's evolution and the artist's vision. Through "The Brain and The Heart," the artist invites viewers to reflect on themes of connection, decay, and the passage of time. These pieces not only engage the senses but also provoke thought, encouraging a deeper appreciation for the beauty in natural processes that shape our world.

Hey, I'm Mariana, and I'm an artist who loves exploring the connection between modern life and the natural world. I'm all about repurposing and transforming discarded objects to give them new meaning and extend their lifespan. My diverse portfolio ranges from traditional painting to experimental forms like land art and trash art. I'm also passionate about sewing and photography, and you'll find a variety of media represented in my work. In my prints, I use rust to represent the process of decay, and I explore textures and craftsmanship. I also create unique and captivating accessories like geometric brass and leather bracelets and handmade copper and brass bracelets set on leather. Each design is unique and reflects my personal style, ranging from intricate sacred geometry patterns to bold Art Deco-inspired designs, from natural world elements to psychedelic elements. I also create pieces using mushroom mycelium and mushrooms as a primary material. By cultivating living materials through various substrates, I'm pushing the boundaries of traditional art mediums. I aim to research and develop innovative ideas with a clear focus on social and environmental issues. By harnessing the remarkable potential of living mycelium, I'm creating art that challenges our perceptions of what art can be and helps address vital issues affecting our society and environment. My art practice is a reflection of my exploration of different materials and mediums to create something new and expressive a rethink of traditional art mediums. It's a lifelong journey of self-discovery and growth and I'm constantly pushing myself to try out and learn about new materials and techniques.
