Description

Meiry Lucy is a contemporary artist from Brazil who has been dedicated to art since childhood. Her artistic career took a significant turn in 2015 when she was invited to exhibit one of her works at the Sociedade Brasileira de Belas Artes. There, she was awarded a Silver Medal at the 3rd Salão Carioca de Arte Contemporânea. Since then, she has received numerous other recognitions, including Silver Medals at the Salão de Arte Sacra and the 50th Salão de Maio in 2016. Her work was also honored with a Gold Medal at the Salão Rio Olímpico e Paraolímpico in 2016 and a Grand Silver Medal at the Salão Carioca de Arte Contemporânea in 2017. Her works address central themes such as climate change, the protection of the rainforest, and the desire for peace. Titles like Aquecimento Global highlight the urgency of climate change, while Amazonia draws attention to the threats facing the Amazon rainforest, emphasizing its beauty and vulnerability. In pieces like Paz, the call for global harmony and peaceful coexistence is reflected. She powerfully addresses devastating forest fires caused by human actions in Floresta em Chamas. Meiry Lucy uses bold colors and dynamic structures to depict the destructive impact of environmental degradation and emphasize the importance of conservation. Works like Terra Yanomami urge us to respect the rights and way of life of indigenous peoples, whose survival is closely tied to the preservation of the rainforest. Her works are more than just abstract representations; they call for a respectful approach to nature and urge responsibility for the future of our planet. In addition to exhibitions in Brazil, Meiry Lucy has also gained international recognition. She participated in the Contemporary Art Fair in Luxembourg in 2020, where she was again honored with a Silver Medal. In 2023, she was featured in Paris, where she participated in an exhibition for the launch of the book Vivemos Arte. Her works are now part of private collections in countries such as Dubai, Switzerland, France, the United States, the United Kingdom, Portugal, and Norway. This international presence underscores the significance of her messages, which reach far beyond the borders of Brazil.
