Soraia Andersen
Located at Folkestone, United Kingdom lies Soraia’s studio.
“Exploring ideas of power and powerlessness, perception, labels and belonging - her autobiographical work centres around an investigative process into her own fragmented identity, with each new series seeking to explore a different facet of herself.
Through states of flow, induced by the process of making, the artist overcomes her own painful reality by continuously transmuting her pain into colour.
Directly influenced by the creative process of Matisse’s cut-outs period, the artist cuts, paints and glues mixed media onto canvas through an exhaustive process lasting 3-6 months in duration, resulting in a multilayered, multifaceted artwork.” Andersen shares.
