RE|FRACTION The project began with a simple observation. I was sitting on a moving bus, rain sliding down the window, and a thin layer of water bent the passing landscape into flowing distortions. The familiar became unstable. That moment stayed with me because it...
Mirela Fioresy is a visual artist whose work explores the invisible forces that shape how we see ourselves and each other. Through painting and mixed media she focuses on what brings us together and what keeps us apart, examining how our environments, beliefs, and emotions shape both personal experience and the wider collective consciousness.
For her GlogauAIR residency, Fioresy introduces “Water and Oil Don’t Mix” as both the title and the guiding principle of her project. She takes a fundamental lesson from painting – that oil and acrylic will never blend – and transforms it into a method for discovery. By layering these materials on a single surface, she allows their resistance to guide the outcome, watching pigments push, repel, and settle into surprising organic forms. This encounter becomes both process and metaphor, capturing moments of tension, separation, and uneasy coexistence.
Brazilian contemporary artist Mirela Fioresy begins a new research phase as part of the GlogauAir Berlin Online Residency Program. Mirela Fioresy has been selected for the GlogauAir Berlin Online Residency Program, taking place from October to December 2025.
During this residency, she joins artists from eight different countries, engaging in a collective exchange of artistic research and experimentation. The program provides a space for dialogue and development, allowing Mirela Fioresy to expand her practice while connecting with an international network of contemporary artists.
At the end of the program, GlogauAir will host an Open Studio online exhibition, where each artist will present the outcomes of their residency process. Mirela Fioresy’s work will be shared publicly as part of this presentation.
