Jade Rivera - Lima, Peru

Jade Rivera captures the transience of life while enriching everyday experiences through his street art and thought-provoking paintings. His work highlights the power of faith in dreams, the emotion of reconnecting with nature, and the importance of self-awareness in achieving a higher level of consciousness and responsibility.

Rivera’s characters, often depicted as children, convey a sense of calmness through their non-verbal language—their gaze, gestures, and body postures. These figures, whether asleep or facing their fears, find a sense of belonging in nature, whether hidden in the forest, by the ocean, or on city walls. They engage in dialogue, addressing societal problems and posing questions that invite contemplation.

His characters embody a range of emotions—sadness and hope, struggle and peace—representing the complex journey of growth and awakening as life speeds forward, leaving behind dreams, memories, and few traces.

"Through my art, I aim to inspire reflection on the human condition, helping others find meaning in the quiet moments of life." - Jade Rivera
