Valeria Yscava
I am a visual artist from Brazil. I work with photography, scanography and physical art.
I strive to project this diachrony of illusion and reality onto a familiar, empathically close image of a person.
We live a joint historical experience, an experience of sharing the sensory. I paint portraits of the Other, likening them to still frames, which at first glance may seem meaningless, empty. But in fact, each such still frame is a part, a link in a modern history familiar to everyone and lived by everyone.

Lucid • 7 artworks
View allThese images trace the soft boundary between body and essence, between light and memory. There is no haunting here. Only the quiet power of remembering who you are beneath the noise, beyond the flesh. The ghost is not absence — it’s awareness, fluidity, freedom.
To be lucid is to see clearly, finally: you were never lost, only blurred. And in that blur, you were fully alive.
Synthetic skin • 17 artworks
View allThere's no more criticism here - just a statement of the presence of the most unsightly shrouds of human activity, and maybe the very essence of it, stuffed away into a corner.
But for me, these fragments are not weaknesses, but opportunities to become whole. I take them out of the far corners and light them up as a full part of myself.
Integrity is not achieved by cutting off a part of one's being, but by integrating opposites.
- Carl Jung

Drowning
Immersing my own images in watercolor creates a very unusual spectrum of sensations — a gentle destruction of a familiar image that somehow feels so right and relaxing, as if you are sinking into a bath and letting something go. Drowning is often associated with melancholy and hopelessness, yet here it brings relief, like forgiveness.
Beauty of a woman
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows & the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years.
