Nazzal’s primary medium of choice is PVC for the sculptural quality and intense color pigment it offers her works. Her use of PVC also has a sustainability objective by repurposing PVC materials that would otherwise be harmful to the environment.

In her work, Nazzal alludes to a state of consciousness that impacts a sharp sensory awareness when one empies their mind and escapes.

BIOGRAPHY

Stefania Nazzal (b. 1976 ) is a Swiss artist based in Dubai. Nazzal trained at the Cyprus Academy of Art and Central Saint Martins in London.

Working in mixed media, Nazzal weaves together bold colors to create dreamlike, often paradoxical, compositions through a meticulous, creative process.

For Nazzal, the rainbow carries deep personal meaning as a symbol of hope and the transience of life. Through her practice, she performs a reflection, refraction, and dispersion of light, constructing whimsical colourscapes that depict the spectrum of light in multicolored forms.

A perfect curve bending beyond the sky, no end in sight…
Fables tell treasures to await true believers.
A spectrum of colors, dazzling hues bringing me joy and happiness,
Slowly fading away into a haze of light.
Magical through and through to a world of fantasy and colorful imagination…

“Somewhere” by Stefania Nazzal 

As a child, I escaped the world through color. My initial inspiration came from my first-ever encounter with a rainbow, which offered a moment of magic and hope during a difficult time.  Escaping with colour manipulation, a reflective process that I brought to my practice today.

Through repetition built on thousands of strings, my work becomes meditative, offering an escape from the world in both the process and creation and my resulting whimsical colorscape inspired by natural phenomena.

The phenomenon can neither be owned nor reached and can never be contained. ‘’Within seconds of seeing one, even to this day, it is just magical. An instant inner peace and ultimate comfort of hope. Unfortunately, these ephemeral moments never last and fade quickly like an illusion.’’

“I seek to capture these elusive moments that evoke positive and hopeful energy.”
