Artist Profile

Adriana Dorta

Her work has evolved into a more multi-disciplinary approach towards the viewer, achieving an interactive, vivid, almost mechanical visual effect.

Adriana Dorta Sáez, born in Caracas, Venezuela, has a bachelor’s degree in Business and studied Visual Arts in the American Art Institute of Miami. From early age, she developed a great inclination towards the arts inspired by the effects of light through shades and color in the stained glass of France’s old cathedrals, like Chartres and Notre-Dame en Vaux. The artist has said: “… As an adult, I now perceive my paintings as a form of multicolor light through precise lines that reflect the influence of my passion for stained glass and how it reflects the straight lines that moves throughout the day. That’s how I try to transmit the magic that can only live in those sacred windows”

She has also a great passion for Geometric Abstract Art. This artistic language inspired the great international masters of kinetic, optical, and geometric abstraction from whom Dorta takes great motivation, Yaacov Agam (b. 1928), Josef lbers (1888- 1976), Kenneth Noland (1924-2010), and Frank Stella (b. 1936). Adriana Dorta cleverly studied and reinterpreted them, reaching her own dimensions and unique creative conceptions through her exquisitely innovative artworks.
Since 2015, Dorta has successfully exhibited in important art shows throughout the US and abroad as well Museums. It is interesting to highlight that geometric art has been one important tract in the art of native cultures in The Americas as well as in Europe, Asia, Africa, or Oceania. It is remarkable the versatility on how Adriana Dorta recreates her own Geometric shapes and lines, making a ‘fusion’ of them with her unique effects of the light perceived trough endless spaces.
Her achieved perspectives capture and give great emotions to the viewers of her artworks. They are composed by one or multiple pieces that combine among them and can be displayed horizontally or vertically.

Dorta uses for her Art delicate combinations of grays, silvers, gold, black or white, often accompanying them with the addition of one or more bright colors to create a vibrating effect and impact, making each work a unique experience to enjoy. Her work has evolved into a more multi-disciplinary approach towards the viewer, achieving an interactive, vivid, almost mechanical visual effect that leaves spectators with 3D visual illusions without the use of electrical or mechanical components.
