"I was born in 1960 in Paris, to a Russian father and an Iranian mother. I spent my childhood between France and Iran. An architect by training, I first practiced my profession while, at the same time, cultivating a passion for art. My inspiration comes from Iran, the country of my origins, from Russia, of which my grandmother used to tell, from France, where I studied, and from Martinique, which was my home for several years. This wealth of differences, this diversity of cultures, and my sensitivity to the world around me compel me to create. Fairy tales and fables, the timeless stories that impressed me in childhood, have today immersed me in a new fantastic universe, peopled by strange creatures. I love to create my own world, where everything ridiculous, unserious and invented is the "key" to our reality, which is often too heavy".
About the artist:
VIDA VERBA graduated from the School of Architecture. While still a student, she began creating graphic works and painting. Vida lived in the Antilles, first in Guadeloupe, then in Martinique.
Each of her works is an unceasing quest, always unfinished. Emotion, expression, material, manner, symbols... everything may change.
VIDA VERBA has taken part in several solo exhibitions in Paris, several exhibitions in New York, and the Pool Art Fair-Martinique FWE art fair in Martinique.
