About Artist:
Rita Ventura is a Portuguese plastic artist who creates a vivid, expressive universe filled with characters and animals who confront each other to portray - and often denounce - modern life.
Inspired by Lisbon, its people and the magnificent light, Rita?s work is irreverent, ironic, and funny; yet her pertinent depictions of moral and social problems, notably in the female world, are provocative.
Rita?s themes and style have many people associate her to the Outsider Art movement, but her incorporation of expressionism and satirical illustration make her an original and contemporary artist.

"A family, most likely refugees, is without a house and together in a boat. The boat has wheels to quickly escape. It?s a potentially dangerous situation, represented by the blue dog. The bird ? symbolizing liberty - is helping them to go forward and stopping the dog by posing its leg on it."
