Description
Maria Rivans is a UK artist, living and working in Brighton. She is best known for her intricate, humorous and eye-popping surreal Landscape, Portrait and 3D collages.
Maria draws inspiration from philosophical teachings, cultural references such as vintage Hollywood films, Hitchcock and the sci-fi TV films and shows she watched as a child. Her collage practice is a continuation of her childhood experiences; the active sense of play when exploring ideas during the making process, the rejection of logical depiction and the destruction of the original image.
