BEAUTY: Ceramics--Natalia Dias

Natalia Dias is an amazingly imaginative sculptor working in clay, ceramic and porcelain. Her recent work has centered on the heart--no, not the sweet, cute, Valentine heart with double lobes and a pointy bottom but the real, visceral, human heart complete with aorta, arteries, and the superior vena cava.

From her mission statement:
"My work is my own language. I sculpt metaphorically the way that I see and feel things, intending to project the viewer to a dreamscape of sensuality and magic realism.
This recent body of work is an allegory to the human condition, the Alchemical journey that an individual takes from birth to death in search of harmony and which can be manifest through Love."
