Why art, Why Atessa's Art?

Having a deep connection with her childhood memories and thoughts gives Atessa’s work a unique flavour. Her style of work and her methods are exclusive to her as most of her artistic discoveries and innovations happen through experimentation and by chance. Her pieces are a result of free improvisation while feeling inspired by a concept or phenomena. Atessa tells her stories through a lens crafted by her imagination, sympathy, memories, and honest feelings.
