Not all discarded material loses its usefulness in the hands of artist Ilza Rahmeir Alliana. Born in Foz do Iguaçu and from a German family, she developed a taste for art as a child and has since evolved her skills over the decades.
In the painting Vidas do Iguaçu, Ilza shows environmentalist Francisco Amarilla that her wooden plaques, for example, go beyond treatment and painting. In her pieces, she seeks to convey positive messages so that good energy reaches the environments where they are placed. In this way, the artist gives new meaning to materials that were previously treated as trash. “It’s really nice. We transform them into something that people can photograph, like and take that message home with them,” she points out.
She also uses other elements from nature, such as clay, earth and even simple tree leaves, which, combined with her sensitivity and passion for her work, result in beautiful works of art. “Through art, people become healthier. People who dedicate themselves to enjoyable work have no time to feel pain or get sick,” she says. Check out the full video:
