Silvia poloto
Beginning with my experience as a woman, immigrant, widow, and mother, from my own subjective experience and honest reflection, I create work to connect to others.I am interested in the purpose of pain, in the structure of sorrow, in the anguish of grief, in the rapture of love, in the joy of friendship, in the tenderness of self-discovery. I am interested in the exploration of elegance, simplicity, of beauty.Like many artists in history, I affirm the existence of beauty itself and the possibility of human connection and shared meaning. However, I work in abstraction. Through abstraction, I reveal rather than portray and invite rather than present.
I use an always evolving approach to materials to express what is there, what is here, what is between.
Silvia Poloto, a talented and prolific Brazilian-born mixed-media artist, self-taught and inner-directed, is not a product of America’s art higher-education system, she is an artist committed, almost defiantly, to self-expression and emotion.Poloto, who immigrated to California in the early nineties as a young electrical engineer and discovered her knack for visual communication almost by chance, possesses not only a fearless openness to stimuli and ideas but also the visual imagination and instincts to refine the daily chaos into an ordered esthetic beauty.Pursuing her art education independently, she picked up metalworking, painting, and photographic skills as she needed them —“Nothing could stop me,” she says. She remembers somewhat wryly, however, that after welding metal sculptures out of creative compulsion, she discovered a book on Abstract Expressionist sculptor David Smith, and in it, her unknown artistic ancestors.That slight reinvention of the wheel aside, however, Poloto’s career has been extremely successful. Her sculpture, paintings, and assemblages have been exhibited in the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Jordan, France, Spain, Italy, Germany, Egypt, Greece, Bulgaria, Jordan, Romania, China, as well as the United States in Dallas, Portland, Chicago, Park City, Los Angeles, Seattle, Miami, New York City and, of course, San Francisco. Bay Area venues displaying her work include the DeYoung Museum, where she was an artist in residence, the Italian-American Museum, the Triton Museum, and Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. Her work resides in over eighty corporate collections and hundreds of private collections. She has won many prizes and awards and has been featured in many publications.”
