Soraya Silvestri is a contemporary abstract artist, residing in Ottawa, Ontario. While her work is primarily abstract, everything comes back to nature. A cloudy sky, a storm breaking, a mountain peak, or the cosmos all come alive through strokes and splashes of paint.

It’s the abundance of emotion and energy found in nature that inspire Soraya’s compositions, finding traces of patterns and tones that she then translates to canvas in a unique and powerful way. Soraya strives to create interplay of light and dark hues, experimenting with colour, form, and shadow. Smooth textures, blended colour and sharp contrast are key elements of her work.
