Do we dream to touch the sky?
“Dream High”, a never ending line told us when we were young. But, have you ever wondered how high is high, is there really a standard for such? Currently, Burj Khalifa is the tallest infrastructure ever built but several years from now, thing may change and be replaced by another. It is a world where everything seems like a competition. We tend to be blinded by the victories we see solely on the outside. Do these really matter in life? Sometimes, we look up above us without acknowledging the ones in front of us. We could also dream to run freely from the ground. A perspective of one cannot be seen by everyone. For across the skyscrapers, dreams also do come true.
Vanessa Tria is a contemporary artist born in Manila, Philippines in the year 1997. From an early age, she discovered that art is her soul mate. As she grew older, her heart for art grew fonder. She was full of vivid ideas in mind as she earned a degree of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering and became a licensed professional. Still, she was able to continue her passion as she kept on trying numerous mediums, to find out the perfect fit for her creative mind.
In her seven years of artistic endeavor, she has settled on the use of oils and acrylics as her painting medium, and use the swift of her fingers and palette knife to create striking impressionist strokes. Her art style started from abstract impressionism and expressionism that mostly involves nature and women as her subject, until she was infatuated with comical realism which incorporated her adoration for pugs as her main subject.
Her works and artistic journey have been featured Rappler (twice), When in Manila, and Philippine Star. She has joined online and physical art exhibitions locally and internationally and has sold several art pieces all over the country and even overseas. She was also included as a finalist in a nationwide art competition and featured by Novice Magazine.
