Eliana Zeferino

Argentine visual artist, self-taught, active since 2009, born in Mendoza. She is recognized for her use of the palette knife in a unique style, achieving through a blend of acrylics and pastel chalks abstract images that converse between the real and the imaginary. During her visit to New York in the spring of 2025, the artist immersed herself in the city’s vibrant energy. The urban landscape — with its towering skyscrapers, bustling streets, distinctive smells, ever-present sirens, and blossoming trees — inspired her to explore new forms, materials, and colors in her artistic production. The combination of textures and materials, such as collage, allowed her to create work that is creative and visually engaging, telling the everyday story of nourishing both body and soul with great pleasure. The colors, textures, sounds, flavors, and smells that accompany edibles became a unique experience for her in NYC. Vellum paper and acrylic paint were the perfect “pairing.”
