WHO IS 

VIOLENT?

I am Viola Merkohasani, a visual artist with a degree in Architecture and Urban Design. I started drawing when I was four years old and simply never stopped. What began instinctively became the one constant that followed me through every stage of my life and eventually developed into my practice as an artist.My architectural education came later, adding another way of thinking to something I had already been doing for most of my life. It changed the way I understand space, perspective, composition and the relationship between a figure and its surroundings. Today, the two exist naturally alongside each other in my work, with painting remaining at the centre of everything I create.
