ABOUT
TSV, Tatiana Viola, is an Argentinian-Italian-American emerging mixed media artist whose work explores memory, movement, resilience, and the in-between spaces of identity. Raised in the U.S. by immigrant parents, she grew up deeply connected to Argentina and Italy—immersed each year in el campo, where the silence of open land and the freedom of horses left an enduring imprint. This grounding in heritage lives at the core of her practice, yet her perspective is also shaped by being American, always creating from a place of duality and contradiction.
Her process is raw, layered, and intuitive. Tatiana rarely begins with a fixed plan; instead, she follows instinct over form, allowing each piece to evolve through iterations that can take months or even years before revealing themselves. She works across acrylic, oil, photography, fabric, sewing, digital design, markers, and collage—refusing to confine herself to a single medium. The result is a body of work that is both visually textured and emotionally resonant, often reflecting the strength of women, the weight of inherited memory, and the quiet resilience found in liminal spaces.
Currently based in Los Angeles, TSV studied studio art and marketing in Boston and art history in Paris. She has exhibited internationally, with her first solo show Therapy opening in Palermo Soho, Buenos Aires in March 2024, followed by Motive in Greenwich, Connecticut in October 2024. Her next collection Insomnia will be presented in Los Angeles late 2025.
For TSV, art is a form of translation: a textured diary of what it means to belong to more than one world, yet not feel fully at home in any. The only place that has ever truly felt like home, she admits, is the studio—where art becomes her language, her process, and her way of speaking to the world.
