The artist.
Amber Vittoria is an artist, poet, and author working in Los Angeles, California. Taking advantage of the fluidity of her ink, color pencil and acrylic paints, Amber creates aqueous rainbow gradients that dominate her compositions. Punctuated by simple graphite line drawings and impactful words, her work draws on her relationship to beauty, emotion and societal expectations.
Scrolling,
Trying to uncover
Answers to a
Different version of life.
Unsuccessfully, but
Now I know how to
Fly a kite.
The piece is inspired by Vittoria’s recent struggles with fertility, the endless scrolling that comes with searching for answers she may never find, and the humorous parallel answers the internet serves up as relief.
