"Silent Chorus" uses as a reference, a tragic chorus in classic theater, where the collective stood for the personal and was used to discuss issues affecting individuals in a universal way.

The work has a triangular configuration.] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/1572358502929-PUZRKR9S8RP8784QRZGJ/SilentChorus04_EvaRochaJPG.JPG Sculptures https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/1572358351111-T9JSA7YBJ67PFPDOSU9X/eva+rocha Sculptures For the creation of this work I used a process I learned while living in Baños del Incas in the Andes of Perus in 2005 and studying under a master ceramist that restored Pre-Colombian ceramic pottery.

My mother remembers it as before being five, playing underneath the table with the lints of fabrics that my grandmother was cutting. This is what I did since I was a child in Brazil, drawing with threads on the ground, or with strings of my hair. They are my own states of mind, and body or poetic memories of women in the land where I was born. They used to be impermanent forms, until one day I decided to stitch them to canvas, from underneath. [Most of these works are in my available collection.

I create this work in the year that president Trump proposed to create a wall between the United States and Mexico. I was referring to, among other things, to a historical event of 1559 in New Mexico during which, in a battle with the indigenous people, the colonizers severed a foot of each indigenous survivor to cause them humiliation. I was making reference to different historic moments of persecution, battles, wars, holocausts, forced migrations and displacement. I questioned the humiliations historic and of today, and the fences of all time that we all have to go through - be they social, cultural, of race or gender or identity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/1581099170488-WH0DGSUGRWL2O4I9RP2A/Museum+of+Capitalism+NYC+photos+by+Marc+Tutti+-+67.jpg Installations “Breaking Bread” 2019 as installed during the exhibition Museum of Capitalism at Parsons School, NYC photo by Marc Tutti https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/1604580546555-1UVZS7M2LWY9TWVJDYAL/Eva+Rocha_feet_sculptures_installation_2017_SFAI+Installation.jpg Installations “Diplacament” -March-The People (detail) 2017 Installations inspired by the People’s March.

I started this work in 2013 after the archives of the dictatorship of my country were made public on the internet and I researched them. I used photos, mine and public, to comment on personal/collective memory. I questioned the idea of memory and truth as constructed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/1572362879988-BCPHYX6I3TV0SRATDP6Q/image-asset.png Installations https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/1572362954974-F9QEJCCPXTOPYVZP0X0O/448051625_VMFA_08+copy+2.jpg Installations “Object-Orientalis’ (16 videos of 15 women, plus me, projected mapping into crates). I created this work in the summer of 2015 [July/15] while using the space of an abandoned warehouse. I created a self taught project-mapping to suit the idealized project of displaying the women moving inside the boxes. The women were volunteers. In this photo by Terry Browm, it is installed at the sculpture garden of the Virginia Museum of Fine Artes. I created it to be seen by everyone including children. The nude is very discrete and I recorded many grate conversations around the work. Here are some links I did and one also done in the second time it was installed in another public event https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1190446431088421 / https://www.facebook.com/eva.rocha.357/videos/1539549112826663 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/5047b930-cd26-43b5-aecc-0f3321799bff/Eva_Rocha_women_in_boxes.jpg Installations - Make it stand out Object Orientalis, viewed in the still day light in the begging of the event. This project is very important too me. The lack of sponsorship has preventing me from showing it in other places, in reaching the right curator and international events. Very unfortunately for social artists, the art world is mostly a paid game and the entitlement to an artist can allow or prevent the artist participation in the Artis. But not all art is related to the ego game, the profiting game, the sponsored participation. This work is related to the trafficking of women. This subject is important to me and I hope this to be seen. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/1572363152149-8NUY4FHKFZYSNVS9WVO3/image-asset.jpeg Installations “Object-Orientalis”was/ is a comment on object-oriented philosophic aspects and its relation to the dehumanization and exclusion viewer -and the disconnected dialogue. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/1572363000416-L8LF6RVQNLS6IXWLJ870/Terry+Brown+1.jpg Installations Wood art crates created for the project and filled with art packing materials.

I would not consider them as art, as I did not know what art was. I did not see art in a context of a gallery or museum until I was 19 years old and moved to São Paulo and visited the Museo de Arte de São Paulo, MASP.

Make it stand out ©evarocha #EvaRocha #artist #brazilian #contemporaryartists #women_artists #latinx__artist #biboc_artist #artistas_do_Brasil I was born in a 3 streets, 9 blocks town in Brazil. Itacolomy, as it was called, was not in the map. It is now, Novo itacolomy. The word Itacolomy, by the way, means Beautiful Rock in the native language of Brazil. There were no galleries or museums in Itacolomy. But yes, there was Art. An art that was genuine to place and collective expression. And what is that which is called art? Who were those that decided what art is? What is implicit in the art dialogue - if there is one. Who are the ones who decide who participate in the arts, in the arts’ dialogue? Art creation is not a privilege. Art is an atemporal own alphabet of any so-called-culture. Art exists prior to definitions of culture or art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/2ac4c9d1-1250-40aa-9b8e-137ecacb74f3/com_boneca.jpg Bio - Make it stand out Me, first on the left, playing with a doll that belonged to my cousin from the city brought. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/af868135-2967-4666-9131-ec8c46ba1e6e/eva-rocha-e-primos.jpg Bio - Make it stand out My mother was from Minas, and my father was from Bahia.

I used to live in the United States and I co-founded a nonprofit to promote Latin Art Art and take art programs to marginalized Latino communities [most Latinxs in the US are Indigenous descendants]. I fought for inclusion and to open for fair conditions to participate. I advocated for what I believed that, art, as a place of participation and dialogue, should be aaccessible to all groups. Talent is not privilege, but conditions to participate in the arts is. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/cad65bc5-3a9f-4878-8ef3-1fdb4fd75cef/projeto+mixtecas.png Bio - Make it stand out Project Mixtecas: I met with the indigenous Mixtec women immigrants to the United States. We talk about their culture, their symbology. I presented some works in Art History [in books} and Contemporary Art to create knowledge of the quality of their own art. We did an exhibition of their work as Art in an Installation of Textiles Art. Many groups don’t get to participate in the arts and became just an images of inclusion but without really participating in the arts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/2f361f7e-f462-40dc-bb60-7c646c830976/Amazonia.jpg Bio - Make it stand out I used to participate with a group of women artists and social workers on a staged ‘arm fighting’ - we raised money for social causes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/696b10b9-9bce-495d-bad5-4c0f24cd3fa9/eva_rocha_chancay_puppets.jpg Bio - Make it stand out While working with communities I was also invited to participate in the arts. A career in the arts initiate organically. I was invited to show a work in 2011 {first work shown in a gallery space, I created it with my hair] and I created sculptural puppets that were shown in festivals, specially in the Latin American Day I helped the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts to stablished. My hope was that the art of indigenous / latin would be seen beyond the view of exotified crafts, but as an art with its own aesthetics. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/cf8dc546-c8ce-4efa-aa20-2da788a278d1/eva_rocha_chancay-boneco.jpg Bio - Make it stand out I used to be a tour guide for the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. Many times I thought about how there was a difference in seen European antique art and seen Pre-Colombian art. I had lived in Peru and that art inspired me as an artist. I created this cloth sculpture “Chancay” [based in a Chancay burial object}, and I consider it a very important work in my career, but it was not seen as an artwork, and was dismissed from the basement.Nevertheless, I have constantly insisting in making reference to the art of indigenous root, to be seen as art. A large part of my work is based in artifacts.. Due to the dismissal of artifacts of indigenous peoples as art, the reference in aesthetic also gets dismissed as art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/2bd9433f-17b2-4cf5-a8c2-e86ef7bd0af3/Eva_Rocha_0000001_++%23Eva_Rocha+%23Eva_Rocha_artist+%23brazilian+%23contemporary+%23womenartist++%23latinxartist+%23bibocartist+%23emergingartist+%23artistas_doBrasil+%23Brazilianartist+copyright+%C2%A9evarocha.jpg Bio After a occupying the space of an abandoned warehouse and creating a solo with many works of sculptures and also project mapping I developed myself, technique I used to create a artwork to bring awareness of women trafficking, I received a prize as emerging artist in 2016.

The solo exhibition took place at the Taubman Museum in 2022. I dedicated it to the [art] history of Indigenous Peoples and descendants in diaspora and based all the works artifacts of Indigenous cultures. I left the United Stated in 2022.

It was only at the age of nineteen that she saw art in the context of museums and galleries. She began her artistic work during the years she lived in the Andes of Peru. Influenced by pre-Columbian art, she developed methods related to the aesthetics of artifacts. In the United States, she exhibits her work in several museums and had her first solo exhibition as an award-winning exhibition at the Taubman Museum in 2023. Much of her work references indigenous artifacts and the resulting interdisciplinary dialogues present in the decontextualized views of cultural objects. Biografia: Eva Rocha é uma artista multimídia. Nascida em um povoado de três ruas e sem acesso a materiais de arte, desenhava com fiapos de pano e com cabelo. Somente aos dezenove anos tem contato com a arte no contexto de museus e galerias. Dá início ao trabalho artístico, nos anos em que viveu nos Andes peruanos. Impactada pela arte pré-colombiana, desenvolve métodos relacionados à estética de artefatos. Nos Estados Unidos, expõe seu trabalho em vários museus e realiza sua primeira individual como prêmio, no Taubman Museum, em 2023. Grande parte de sua obra faz referência a artefatos indígenas e os consequentes diálogos interdisciplinares presentes no olhar descontextualizado de objetos culturais. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db84544c12b3353a4b94931/32afe07b-727b-4ad2-8834-3bd23626cb6a/eva_rocha_trapese+artist.jpg Bio - Make it stand out Trapeze artist trapezista- artista é artista, o meio não é o fim.
