TOBIAS TOVERA

ART NOW FAIR, ART BASEL MIAMI BEACH ARTIST

Born:  California

Resides:  California

In my artwork, I am interested in discovering transmuted spaces, places where energy shifts, changes, or renews itself. Through an exploration of the interstices between opposing elements, such as nature and artifice or chaos and order, I wish to explore entropic systems where healing may occur. I want my audience to be left with question and confronted by a raw sense of what it means to be human.
