Mirela Fioresy's DIP Exhibition is currently open for viewing, from June 14 till August 14th, 2026.

Solo Exhibition: Mirela Fioresy

DIP: Four Series, One Trace

Mirela Fioresy presents DIP: Four Series, One Trace, a solo exhibition at Watapana Tattoo & Art Gallery, Berlin, Germany. The exhibition brings together, for the first time, four bodies of work developed within her exclusive dip pen work:

Details, Time for Help, Synapses, and the [SUB] Ways Series, represented by it's newest piece: [Berlin] Ways.

DIP: Four Series, One Trace offers a rare opportunity to experience these works up close. As many visitors noted during the vernissage, photographs and digital media cannot capture the scale, density, and precision of the details. These works are meant to be seen in person, to slow down, pause, and allow symbols, textures, and colors to speak directly.

Feel free to come by and share with friends. ☀️ 

Tag me if you do, I’d love to know. @mirelafioresy

DIP: 04 Series, One Trace

Synapses Series:

How does the mind unfold? A kaleidoscope of connections, where thoughts dance between clarity and chaos. The energy of what is seen and unseen serves as a reminder of the richness within our own minds.

[SUB] Ways Series:

[Sub] Ways is a series inspired by the transportation systems of some of the world’s largest metropolises. It uses subway lines as metaphors for thoughts that cannot be controlled.

Crowded yet vibrant. Confusing yet rich. Loved yet criticized. A way of life: immersed in a collective unconscious that knows no silence but longs for moments of peace. It explores the struggle to recognize oneself as an individual among millions and to ask: Who am I, really?

Details Series:

An invitation to look closer. Each glance revealing a new secret, unraveling hidden stories. Drawing us into a rare moment of thoughtful pause.

Time for Help Series:

"Time for Help” portrays children from orphanages and small villages in Nepal and Vietnam. Portraits of childhoods filled with gaps, playing with colors of, hopefully, a brighter future.

Vernissage

The exhibition vernissage took place on June 14th, at Watapana Tatto and Art Gallery. Check some of the moments:

SYNAPSES 09

Synapses 09 is part of the Synapses series, inspired by the collective unconscious: the invisible web of thoughts, memories, and symbols that connect us. Entirely hand-drawn with a dip pen, the work reflects how ideas and symbols emerge both as fragments and as patterns, weaving clarity and chaos together. Rather than focusing on a single personal narrative, it speaks to shared crossings, where flows of connection and recurring forms invite viewers to recognize fragments of themselves within the composition.

Mirela Fioresy is an invited artist in the 45th Edition of Expo Arte SP.

Mirela Fioresy is one of the artists invited to participate in the 45th edition of Expo Arte SP, held at Solar Fábio Prado in São Paulo, where she presents, for the first time in this exhibition, works from her series Water and Oil Don’t Mix.

A Brazilian visual artist based in São Paulo, with exhibitions in Brazil and internationally, Mirela Fioresy develops a practice that investigates the invisible forces shaping how we perceive ourselves and one another. Her work reflects on what brings us together and what separates us, and on how environments, beliefs, and emotions contribute to both individual experience and collective consciousness.

The series Water and Oil Don’t Mix was developed during her artist residency at GlogauAIR in Berlin between October and December 2025. Known for her meticulous dip pen work, the artist expands her research here through a process rooted in a technical principle of painting. By layering oil and acrylic on the same surface, she allows the resistance between these materials to guide the outcome, observing pigments that push, repel, and settle into unexpected organic forms.

This interaction becomes both a process and a conceptual framework. Rather than proposing resolution, the series reflects on coexistence and the ability to share space despite persistent differences. It invites viewers to consider how navigating tension and separation is part of a broader, shared human experience. The works are accompanied by time-lapse recordings that reveal the unfolding of the process.

Solar Fabio Prado

The Solar Fábio Prado is one of São Paulo’s most significant historic residences, embodying the architectural elegance and cultural aspirations of the city’s early 20th-century elite. Built in the 1930s, the mansion reflects a refined European-inspired style, surrounded by landscaped gardens that reinforce its character as both a private residence and a space of social and intellectual gathering.

Today, the building is officially listed (tombado) as a protected heritage site, recognizing its outstanding historical, architectural, and cultural value. This designation ensures the preservation of its original features while allowing it to remain an active space for artistic and cultural programming.

“Water and Oil Don't Mix 5” was selected for the following curated collection:

Tumulte chromatique

'At the heart of a wild, lush natural world, biodiversity unfolds in joyful chaos. Between meticulous details and bursts of pigment, this exhibition celebrates the plurality of life. A vibrant sensory experience that reveals the full richness and complexity of our natural world.'

ORIGINAL

'Au cœur d'une nature sauvage et foisonnante, la biodiversité s'exprime en un joyeux chaos. Entre détails minutieux et explosions de pigments, cette exposition célèbre la pluralité du vivant. Une expérience sensorielle vibrante qui révèle toute la richesse et la complexité de notre monde naturel.'

Curated collection by Zoe MN (Paris, France) for Singulart Platform.

WATER AND OIL DON'T MIX

“Water and Oil Don’t Mix” is both the title and the guiding principle of this project. Mirela Fioresy 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.
