BIO
Las búsquedas de Adriana Herrera-Rivera han trascendido siempre el umbral de su carrera, metodologías y técnicas. Hija del Maestro Hernani Herrera Humpierres, educador y cultor que impactó la vida de varias generaciones de caraqueños, Adriana creció embebida en las creaciones plásticas, literarias y musicales familiares; en los debates existenciales, el cultivo de la curiosidad y la alegría de vivir. Fascinada por el efecto de la naturaleza humana y sus formas de interacción, Herrera-Rivera ha empezado a desglosar el universo para mostrarlo sencillo, tangible, explorando distintas superficies. Hace de lo hallado en privado una experiencia que se vuelve colectiva, acercándonos a fragmentos de imágenes que calzan fácilmente no sólo en la venezolanidad esparcida por el mundo, sino en un amplio rango de públicos que hallan en su planteamiento tropical, el gusto por formas, formatos, recursos y contrastes frescos y con huella propia. |

Adriana grew up immersed in the family creations of literature, plastic art, music, existential debates, the cultivation of curiosity and the joy of living. Fascinated by the effect of human nature and its forms of interaction, Herrera-Rivera has begun to break down the universe to show that it’s simple and tangible, while exploring different surfaces. She makes what is found in private an experience that becomes collective. Which brings us closer to fragments of images that easily fit, not only in the reality of the Venezuelan community spread throughout the world, but also in a wide range of audiences.
