Maruzka Cára's fruits convey Brazil's
sweet flavor and fragrance


Source of constant inspiration and emotions, nature represents Maruzka Cára's main focus of artistic creativity. For many years now she has been interpreting numerous themes with the objective of recreating an emotion through an exact image, applying proficient techniques and mostly in its real physical dimension.

Throughout several travels around Brazil, Maruzka has made observations, diligent and constant researches in order to find and locate precious items of our fauna and flora, and more recently, our native fruits. Each postulate of imagination from this new Millennium voyager finds its own form expression balance, surprisingly convincing and precise.

Attracted by the sheer beauty of the products from our land, Maruzka's inspiration gathers the fruits in a natural choreography, finding a well-balanced and well-distributed balance. Both thematic and chromatics interact in perfect weaving, stimulating our fantasy.

Nature demands a skillful artist's brush with sharp strokes to faithfully convey both vivid and calm emotions through its original compositions, poetical and entangled by a soft, delicate chromatic.

Maruzkas realism does not merely achieve trifle illustrative results, but penetrates the images with vivid and suggestive plasticity, allied with an unquestionably high compositional vigor. Considering  them as characters, enabling them to move, applying colors and tonal balance, the artist achieves to convey to her fruits the very fragrance and Sweet Flavor of Brazil.
