“Momentos de Gratidão” estreia na Estação República
A Estação República, da Linha 3-Vermelha, recebe a partir de 10 maio a exposição “Momentos de Gratidão”, que retrata um episódios de superação e fé da artista brasileira internacionalmente conhecida, Edna Stradioto. São 11 telas pintadas com o autorretrato da pintora, que traduzem sentimentos de gratidão à vida e sua família após a superação de uma fase de depressão.
A artista escolheu a gratidão como tema principal após passar por momentos de extrema dificuldade que, de acordo com ela, exigiram espiritualidade e resistência: “A gratidão é essa conexão com minha história de vida. Me sinto grata porque tudo isso me fez ser quem eu sou hoje. As telas tem a ver com esses momentos da minha vida, ‘entre tempestades e glórias’”, conta Edna.
Edna busca inspiração em elementos do ar para suas pinturas. A artista justifica a escolha por ser do signo de Libra e, por isso, escolheu incluir nas telas imagens de pombos, que para ela representam o sopro do Espírito Santo, e o balão – em destaque na pintura “Levada” –, outro elemento presente no contexto das obras.
Edna Carla Stradioto é paulistana e atualmente vive em São José do Rio Preto, no interior de São Paulo. Formada em Letras pela UNESP, com especializações em aquarela, literatura e artes, suas obras já foram expostas no Riopreto Shopping; no Iguatemi Rio Preto; no The Viena Workshop Galery; em Viena, na Áustria e no The Borgo Galery, em Roma, Itália. Além de estrear no Metrô a artista exporá no final do mês no Carrousel du Louvre, em Paris.
A exposição fica em cartaz até 31 de maio. Para acompanhar toda a programação da Linha da Cultura acesse:

Edna Carla Stradioto is an emerging independent artist from Brazil and she has just started her professional career as watercolor painter in 2012. she had had her first experience with painting when she was a teenager, but she dropped out of the brushes to study Business, which she had followed for many years. Without ever totally abandoning her artistic side, she decided to give her a 360 degree shot in her life. In 2012, he abandoned his financial career and returned to painting. “The beginning was difficult, I did not have any painting material anymore, I did not know how to approach to the brushes and have no idea what people were doing in watercolor painting, I felt uncomfortable painting again. Totally amateur”.
Edna just paints watercolors. Explaining why he has chosen watercolor as her unique medium, she says “watercolor has a visual appeal that satisfies me. I can be soft or make me gush colors, layers on layers. I can build a narrative composition within others. The color palette is versatile. I can use paper, canvas, cardboard, fabric, almost anything to paint. On top of the watercolor, I can use ink, pastel, acrylic. Watercolor painting is so contemporary, authentic, and multi-dimensional that it dialogues with all other arts. Imagetically, it is possible to approach all styles, to make any theme, and to remain unique among all other mediums. I can’t see myself doing any other thing”.
Edna has been concentrating all her efforts to build her name as a name in watercolor painters. In 2018 she could be seen in different galleries, in Brazil, Italy, Austria and France. She is going to be in Nederland, Switzerland, England, Portugal, France again, and in Brazil, on the first half of 2019. Also, she is in some important online platforms. “I am available 24/7 for my career. I answer phones, reply emails and messages, I’m in the social media, I prepare projects, I paint, and I am pluritasks”. If you send a message to her, you need to be prepared. She is going to answer you personally and faster than you could image.
She teaches watercolor techniques in his studio, in art galleries, as well as workshops in Brazil. Nowadays her work is focused on observing and studying nature landscapes, specially grass fields, such as Cortaderia Selloana, known as Pampas Grass.
