Silvia Felizia is a contemporary abstract artist born and raised in Argentina, currently living and working in Houston, USA.
From her teenage years Felizia began her career as a performance artist, a craft she developed for more than a decade in her native Córdoba. Then she moved to Buenos Aires where studied Graphic Design and worked in the industry until moving abroad in the mid 1990s.
During the first years away from her home country, Felizia started self-educating in visual arts and painting. Later, while living in Thailand, she learned the ancient techniques of mosaic art, which she mastered after years of practice and continues to apply to some of her paintings.
In recent years Felizia started adding textiles, photography, and writing as a fundamental instrument of her practice and exploration of the juxtaposition of identity, freedom, womanhood, and visibility through time.
Abstract and emotive, strong and vulnerable, Felizia’s body of work is drawn from her life story, the stories of others, and the many places she has lived, including Kyiv, Bangkok, and London.
Felizia’s work has been selected for exhibitions in the United States, England, Brazil, Argentina, and Thailand.
