Vero Rivera was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Her work is built around her interest in the contradictions that surround us and our interactions with nature, such as the ephemeral qualities of life resisting the human need or desire of durability and preservation. The artist intends to catch the spectators attention by utilizing natural elements and their ornamental qualities, while simultaneously trying to represent how human relations -including her own- mimic nature’s ability to adapt, heal and strive depending on its surroundings, experiences or relation to time.
