DIANA MOTTA - PINTURA - BRASIL


Diana Motta (São Paulo, 1985) tem na pintura a principal linguagem de sua produção plástica, mas esta pode se manifestar por outros meios, como o vídeo, o desenho, a fotografia, a colagem e o objeto. Principais exposições individuais: “Passagens”, MuBE, São Paulo, SP, 2014; “Sobre O Segredo”, Galeria Antônio Sibasolly, Anápolis, GO, 2014. Principais exposições coletivas: Sauna Mixta - Desapê / Residência Capacete, São Paulo, SP (2016); 47° Salão de Arte Contempôranea de Piracicaba, SP (2015); 23º Salão Curitibano de Artes Visuais, Curitiba, PR (2014); VII Salão de Artes Plásticas de São José do Rio Preto, SP (2014); IV Salão SINAP (CIA das Artes), São Paulo, SP (2014); 20 Salão de Artes Plásticas de Praia Grande, SP (2013). Prêmios: Melhor Obra do Salão IV Salão Internacional de Artes Plásticas SINAP/AIAP, São Paulo, SP, 2014.

A próxima edição do projeto Zip’Up abriga a individual “And listen to the wind blow”, da paulistana Diana Motta. Na exposição, a artista exibe trabalhos que manifestam como a abordagem pictórica orienta sua produção visual, em pinturas com motivos femininos e referências ao universo pop. Mesmo o vídeo e a colagem inseridos na mostra têm como ponto de partida a pintura. A curadoria é de Mario Gioia, que também coordena o Zip’Up.

Nos trabalhos figurativos, a artista investiga a pertinência do autorretrato em tempos de selfies, em que a autoimagem e sua veiculação exaustiva por redes de diversos âmbitos dão a esse tipo de fotografia um novo status. Já nos abstratos, em que Diana experimenta grandes formatos que misturam tinta à óleo e spray sobre tela, as transparências de diversas matizes no campo pictórico provocam uma ideia de imersão. “Penso nas telas grandes com um cenário, um lugar para se entrar”, afirma.

GENESIS
“When the world was created man was created by the end of the process. All the animals were created first. In the story of Genesis when man was created all the animals in the fields feared man, and the reason they feared man is because of the amount of light that was shining and emanating from him. But something happened. The moment that Adam ate from the Tree of Knowledge Good and Bad the world turned around. Instead of the animals fearing man, man is now fearing animals. How could it possibly be? What changed over night?  The story of creation, the Tree Of Knowledge Good and Bad and the Tree of Life, represent two types of awareness. The awareness of the flawless universe, the awareness of mind over matter, the awareness of the Light versus the Tree of knowledge Good and Bad awareness of the roller coaster: one day is good one day is bad, I’m constantly reactive of what goes around me (…) What happened to Adam in the Garden of Eden is that he chose to leave the Tree of Life that had tranquility and peace. And you ask yourself why it’s even possible. But you know that the highest rate of divorce is in perfect marriages? Tranquility kills us. It’s too boring? Is it too obvious? Yes. So we run to the world of stimulation, of grabbing, taking, insecurity, ups and downs.
The moment we make this choice the world is reversed and instead of us being in control of the animals of the field, of reality - the other way around - they are controlling us. The nature of the animal kingdom is to fear, is to awe, is to appreciate the light that man brought in to the world. Why? because man is the only creature that has the free choice, the ability to control, the ability to choose it’s destiny.
The world came into place that a person is afraid of a mosquito.”
- Ruth Rosenberg explaining the Zohar

About my current series.....Therapy and the arts 

I am working on a series of paintings about my experience with mental health. Not only as a licensed therapist, but as an artist and a consumer of MHS. Each painting explores the visual image of emotions associated with a current mental health diagnoses and are meant to stimulate an emotional reaction from the viewer.


As artists we are barometers of society, we study the history of art history and the use of different mediums.
As a therapist I am witness to the pain and suffering of others on a frequent basis. I study the human mind, behaviors and different ways to improve the existence of my clients.
