Deva as a painter
Deva exhibits wide and varied work here. Deva works as much as possible with recycled products.
The paintings contain surprises and invite viewers to look closely.
Deva has been painting and drawing from an early age.
Today she tries to give her work a twist, a stronger emotional energy or to negate meanings.
She is inspired by philosophy and psychology of life itself.
She is aware about the disruption she might cause with her work. She combines what she experiences with her own reality. Her paintings each consist of abstract or recognizable layers that she connects.
You will find her latest work below: The Unknown
And the series: The Alchemy of Elements.
And the series: Keepers of Faith
You can find more information of her first series of 12 paintings: ‘Because it all starts Small’ at the end of this page with another link.

Title: Maze Me 52 bij 90 cm, canvas with wooden frame, acryl paint and pencils.
One of the 12 paintings form the series ‘Because it all starts Small’. A series from a darker periode in Deva’s life where she expresses her first steps in the Art of Alchemy, working with smaller paintings she made over the years and integrating them in bigger works. The universe started incredibly small, with a big bang. She used that as a metaphor for this series. From the depths of your soul, every exploded star, new life will grow, even if you feel you are blind for it. So acknowledge, embrace, work with it and move on.
Maze me is an intimate initiation into the mysteries of the soul. It waits for the guide who discovers where the lady’s heart lies in the labyrinth. Only from areas of love can one walk to the holy wedding, to the core of what is locked up in her heart.
