MONICA COSTA

Through my art, I explore emotions shaped by memory and inspired by a deep fascination with nature. I’m drawn to moments where the relationship between water and sky shifts—where stillness meets movement, and presence meets absence. It’s in these spaces that I feel the work begins to speak and quietly connect.

Each painting begins with nature as its foundation, then transforms through the process into something shaped by feeling and atmosphere. Whether wild and windswept or calm and reflective, my landscapes explore solitude not as emptiness, but as richness—a quiet place to rest and honour beauty through shifting light, colour, texture, and mood.

Creating has always felt natural to me—something I’ve turned to since childhood to make sense of the
world. Today, it’s still about connection. My hope is that each work invites the viewer to slow down,
reflect, and perhaps find a part of their own story within the one I’ve painted.
