Modfellows presents the chromatic, atmospheric abstractions of Ana Carolina
Mönnaco. Mönnaco's history in architecture has pushed her to peer past the
structured world in which we live, to convey the unbound world which surrounds
us. She is interested in the continuous reaching of life. She says, "we live with this
blurred and fractured vision of the world, yet inside each of us there's an
undeniable conviction that something beautiful and perfect still exists beyond our
grasp." In response to this, Mönnaco uses a sophisticated color palette and
inspiration found in the beauty of the natural world to create rich environments
which encapsulate the viewer by surrounding them with wonderment of the
unknown.
Ana Carolina Mönnaco is an artist from Curitiba, Brazil, where she developed a
love of art and architecture. She graduated from Carnegie Mellon University in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. After graduating in 2002, she joined Morris Architects in
Orlando, Florida. Mönnaco has won many prestigious awards including the
International Watercolor Masters Merit Award, the AIP 24 Juror Award, and the
AIP Hugh Ferris Memorial Prize. She now resides in Nashville, where she opened
her design studio MÖNNACO in 2009.
