RAFAELLA BRAGA: THE SKY MADE ME A REALITY
Processa is honored to present Rafaella Braga’s first NYC solo exhibition, “The Sky Made Me a Reality,” curated by Kiara Cristina Ventura. Viewing the sky as a place to find comfort wherever she is in the world, Braga is meshing the dream and fantasy world with that of reality in her paintings. Braga approaches her painting process like a spiritual ritual —at times lighting candles and making flower offerings in front of her work. She then applies a variety of mediums often using paints mixed with water and a large broom that adds action and performative brush strokes to the canvas. Amoungst the dripping paints and layers of texture lie poems and language that reveal Braga intuition and intention behind each piece. Hence the title of the exhibition “The Sky Made Me a Reality,” Braga is nodding to how the sky serves as an imaginative place to dream and express herself, and thus making her who she is today…a reality.
