Acrylic, mixed media and print are the techniques that Silvia Damar uses to express herself. Some times she works with figurative images and other times with abstracts. She believes that art is a simple pathway to knowing and healing ourselves, to see ourselves in symbolic form and communicate through the language of visual harmony. For this reason her art work is a continuous study about concept and technique.
