Echoes from the Earth

The series Echoes from the Earth presents the sophisticated and peculiar artistic production of Ana Elisa Murta. The artist’s creative process, developed over the last 10 years, seeks its strength in the natural elements that rule the planet. The colors come from the beaten earth and rocks that poetically sculpt the mining landscape. The textures come from branches, flowers, twigs, among other substances that make up the physical and material universe

In the artist’s works, there is a commitment to the planet’s natural resources. It is an art form focused on maintaining culture and drawing humanity’s attention to the importance and fragility of natural systems. Faced with the critical situation of the planet we live on, weakened by actions that lead to global warming and its consequences, the finitude of natural resources, the scarcity of water, for example - especially in urban areas - the voice of this artist becomes expressive and extremely relevant. in our contemporary era.

The natural pigments extracted from Brazilian stones were tested and approved by a major
oil ink producer that now uses it to produce on a bigger scale. Needless to say that this small initiative represents an expressive extra income to women from one of the poorest areas
in Brazil that now are collecting the stones.
