Made with real sand for beautiful texture and using only my non-dominant hand due to a ski injury, this piece was the first in a series titled ‘Perfectly Unbalanced’, where the temporary loss of hope was overshadowed by resilience and self-acceptance. For me, giving up is not an option, and as difficult as it may be to follow at times, every time I choose to persist, I feel and see the growth. The basic dark layers represent the initial stage of this journey I was on, while the colours and light show the choices I made along the way. We cannot appreciate light without the presence of darkness.

Vered Brett is an abstract artist living in Cascais, Portugal. Vered’s art explores the depth, complexity and multiple layers of the stories and memories we carry with us throughout life. Her paintings invite the viewer to dive deep into hidden and unknown moments, peel the layers, and embrace self-acceptance and truth. The proximity to the ocean throughout her life is integral to her work and it is reflected in the choice of tools, textures and colours that she borrows from it. She uses water as a main medium to allow free flow of paint, creating soft borderlines and unpredictable marks. Her intuitive process is free from rules and liberating. Vered hopes to inspire viewers to feel fearless, free and vulnerable through her art.
