Soraya Silvestri

‘Zizi’


Ottawa artist Soraya Silvestri ​practices bold abstract, ​landscapes and seascape ​paintings. Characterized by ​vibrant pops of colour, pattern ​and complex compositions, ​Soraya's work explores the ​emotions evoked by nature. A ​painting with a cloudy sky, a ​storm breaking, or mountain ​peaks evoke the abundance of ​emotion and energy found in the ​natural world.

“I try to paint the feeling of being ​very small in the world. The ​power of nature is full of ​wonder and awe. It is both ​beautiful and dramatically ​fierce. When my paintings ​succeed in depicting this feeling, ​I am at once reminded of that ​sense of smallness.”


My Canvas

I specialize in acrylic ​on canvas

I found a deep connection to abstract ​paintings and later I delved into ​landscapes and seascapes. I love how ​each painting can be interpreted in ​many ways. It all depends on the ​viewer and their emotional ​connection ​to my work.
