 Standing on the shores of the Great Salt Lake, I return my work to the elements that birthed it.
Cracked earth textures, shifting salt crusts, and endless horizon lines become maps of movement, memory, and belonging. Made from materials gathered right here in the landscape I now call home, these pieces are my way of rooting myself in a life shaped by constant change. Join us for the opening of Eternal Meditations a two-person exhibition at Gallery Mar Friday, January 16th 6–9 pm @gallerymar Salt Lake City I’d love to see you there. https://www.gallerymar.com/artists/samantha-da-silva  I feel so honored to have created this commissioned painting for my friend Matt’s beautiful new Qi Gong school, Inner Warrior.
The piece is titled “You Are a Circle” and speaks directly to the heart of this practice — wholeness, flow, balance, and the endless cycle of growth and healing. Matt, thank you for pouring your energy into a space that uplifts and strengthens our community. My family and I have been longtime supporters of SLC Qi Community Acupuncture https://www.slcqi.com/, and we can’t wait to step into this new chapter with you. Grateful beyond words. Art for healing spaces. Always. |
