BIO:

Angi Vita is an artist and body painter who has a keen ability to sense the inner beauty of humans of all shapes, genders, and ages. Her works of art on these living beings is a special kind of intimacy that doesn't objectify, but instead exalts the person in feeling confident and adorned.

Angi fervently discards the notion of asking someone to model based on superficial ideas. She believes that there is no normal, and that all bodies are too beautiful to exclude.

In the ten years she has worked with such complex canvases, Angi has grown to understand how special each moment of connection is, and likens the process to that of making a sand mandala; present-oriented, intentional, temporary, and distinctive. The process of gaining trust from others, both physically and emotionally, transcends the work and becomes a unique story that cannot be replicated.

Angi is an avid traveler whose multicultural lens has been the engine of inspiration in every single paint stroke. Her adventures have given her perspective that the focus of visual art is not in the end result, but rather in the process. The beauty of body paint is that it reveals what neither person involved even knew was there, resulting in a magical and intimate experience. — with Gabrielle de Burke and Gina Renzi at The Rotunda.
