Livia Schneider’s work beckons the viewer to return to the ancient wisdom of nature and the occult. While painting is her main focal point, her art takes the form of various multidisciplinary formats. Schneider’s work aims to identify the divine feminine powers all around us, with a focus on alternative spiritual practice and natural healing. Her recent stylistic endeavours are mirror images in digital and paint format, bringing forth a sense of taming the chaotic patterns and energies found in nature by giving it the order of organic symmetry.
This stylistic approach is inspired by the psychological studies done on the Rorschach inkblot test and the phenomenon of free association when looking at organic shapes.
Livia’s work is intuitive and sensual, with a conceptual focus on the psychology and emotional catharsis we achieve through art. Her work aims to acknowledge the ancient wisdom of nature and indigenous knowledge gleaned from her experience of living and growing up in Africa.
