Via Cordis - The Way of the Heart


'Via Cordis – The Way of the Heart' is an exhibition of ceramics & paintings by María Inés Aguirre (MIA) in June at St Stephen Walbrook (Monday 8th – Friday 26th June, 10.00am – 4.00pm). An exhibition reception is being held with MIA on Monday 15th June, 6.30pm, at which I will speak about 'Art as Gift'. All are welcome.

MIA studied Fine Art at the University of Tucumán (Argentina) and the Accademia di Belle Arti in Venice. She has exhibited in Europe, Asia and the Americas and has shows later this year in Hong Kong, France and Argentina. Her work stands out for its colour, energy and spontaneity. Her fascination with the connections between music and colour led her to become the first visual artist in residence at Steinway & Sons, London, where she transformed a Steinway Model D concert grand piano into 'Dancing Soul'. 

Through her 'Via Crucis', 'Via Lucis' and now 'Via Cordis' series she has reflected on emotions provoked by the Passion of Christ while seeing that narrative as also representing the different moods of modern man. These are works to contemplate as, through energy of line and brilliance of colour, they refresh the soul.
