“Award-winning artist and designer Sónia Domingues excels with her creations in all mediums. Sonny, as she is know, has explained her art more like dreamscapes. “My paintings emerge from dreams, Iwant to take strolls through all artistic styles, showing my vision of them”. She is not afraid to experiment and to exist outside the boundaries of each genre of art and creates great compositions of unexpected and intrinsic details, with a well developed figurative technique. Domingues os widely known for her glass paintings, and this medium contributes to the vibrancy of the orks and the colors she brings to life. Domingues has a bold and masterful use of colors, and quite often it’s the subject matter that leads the direction in her painting. Her latest work depicting the decdent history of the Palácio Chiado has won her major international critical acclaim. In the collection comprising of five works, she uses a faceless Butler to take the viewer through the five stages of the rise and fall of this iconic palace. Each of the five scenes painted using mixed media techniques on canvas. The scenes depict different periods in history “The Tragedies”. Fire and the earthquake culminating in the extravagant and decadent descent to banality. The passion captured by the bold use of crimson colors and to amber colored liquid poured out of bottles like liquid gold. The collection has earned Domingues prestigious international awards, most recently, the ATIM Masters Awards by ArtTour Interntional Magazine. With her gentle essence, and courageous vulnerability placed on a canvas Sonny creates a powerfully subtle shift in her world.” - Viviana Puello – [ Writer, Curator, Journalist, Founder and Editor-in-Chef of ArtTour International] - [Summer Issue 2017 – ArtTour International – New Yorker Magazine]
