VAVA VENEZIA - ARTIST

Venezia was born in Puerto Rico and graduated from University Saint Leo of Florida with an Associate in Liberal Arts. Psychology and political science were among her subjects of study. Additionally, she graduated from Graham Webb Academy as a master colorist and hair stylist. At Thomas Edison State University, she is pursuing a bachelor's degree in cybersecurity. 

She engages in Neo Dada Art and New Surrealism, both of which reflect her sense of humor and innocence about life and death. With her photographs, she reveals intimate moments of a woman reflecting in a mirror before her - mysterious, playful, but at the same time lonely, nostalgic, and lost in a labyrinth of dreams. Like Cindy Sherman, Barbara Kruger, and Sophie Calle, this is me-too Pop Art. Throughout her "Selfish-Selfies", she documented herself as she went through depression, eating disorders, and suicide attempts, and morphed into today's attempted self, Vava. Selfish Selfies aims to inspire women of all races and cultures to embrace beauty in every form and to accept that through trauma and pain, we can become whoever we wish to be.
