Solange Pessoa was born in 1961 in Brazil, where she lives and works.

The Série Botânica distills the graphic essence of leaves, plants, flowers and other natural forms.

Solange Pessoa is from the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais, high place of the colonial baroque now "an industrial force" due to its activities of iron extraction. The natural world, a core part of her prolific œuvre, is found both in the subjects represented and in the creative process, especially with materials found on her family farm. Organic matter (earth, moss, leather, wax, feathers, hair, blood, fat…) becomes a medium whose natural evolution transforms the works they compose – full of life, they grow, and sometimes fall, dying to the rhythm of the human, animal, and plant kingdoms.
