Silvia Salvagno: Argentina
Artist - Basel

Silvia Salvagno is an Argentinean artist living and working in Switzerland. Since she left her home in Argentina more than 20 years ago, she embarked on a transformative journey that took her to live in many countries worldwide and deeply influenced her artistic language.

She works primarily with oils and watercolors, and her paintings are reflections and witnesses of her nomadic multicultural life experience. She explores the topics of ephemerality, impermanence and fragility of life. 

In México (2011 – 2015) she studied painting with master "Manuel DeRugama", and photography at the "Escuela Activa de Fotografía". She continued her studies of Painting and Art History in Belgium (2015 -2020) at the "École des Arts de Braine L’Alleud".

“Life and time are constantly changing and escaping our grasp. In my paintings, I try to capture this never-ending transformation and the reflective processes associated with it." - 
Silvia Salvagno.
​

"I work using several fine layers of paint to create pieces that are on the fine line between abstraction and figuration. Empty spaces are fundamental parts of my compositions. My palette is subtle, and I apply delicate brushstrokes to obtain smooth, diffused, serene images. My work is an invitation to pause, reflect, and abandon oneself to a path of discovery into the beauty and peace of what is simple, fragile and ephemeral: our journey through life".- Silvia Salvagno.
​

Her work can be found in collections in the USA, México, Switzerland, Argentina, Belgium, Italy, and in other countries.
