abriella Amado is the pen name of international artist, Angela DeAlmeida."She Sells Sea Spells" From the exotic shores of Rio De
Janeiro, Brazillian Carioca: Angela DeAlmeida shares her secrets of the sea in swirling strokes of ocean hues -- holy and resplendant -- illuminating with reverance the spirits of the deep.
DeAlmeida is a herald of
ancient entities; ill-grasped by mythology and ignored by religion, that will not be denied: manifesting themselves in fluid arrays of conciousness, and captured -- in image only -- at the moment of communion.
Her
paintings, the private product of her Siren sensitivities, appear to continuously flow between dimensions. Each completed in single sittings, the vibrant images are each unique in the mystical audience they grant.
The subject of the sea and what lies beneath is as old as the second verse of the Bible. But the secrets held there by it's creatures and it's guardians remain inviolate despite technology and millennia.
Sirens, or
"Serenas" (in her native tongue) are the elusive and potent Muses in this collaboration.
The opportunity to view Angela's work is to participate in the miracle.
