Karla Felipe Simon is a Brazilian art teacher and painter, who lives and works in Tubarão, Santa Catarina. Her works are done directly from her home, in an improvised studio. She usually seeks inspiration from current facts; themes that arouse different feelings in her, and, in turn, in those who observe the work. The ” Very Strange ” series, for example, arose from the need to expose her view of the current political and social scenario in her country. From then on, the chaotic situation in the Amazon and the negationism regarding the Covid-19 pandemic are also present in her art. She doesn’t plan her work, it appears during brush strokes, in an extremely open and fluid creative process. Most of the time she uses acrylic paint and posca pen on canvas, ceramic and wood.
