Silvana Michetti

Silvana Michetti lives in Toronto, Ontario. She studied Visual Arts at York University (BFA Honours Specialist) concurrently with Education (B.Ed.), and has taught visual arts in diverse settings and schools in Ontario. Travel and work in Europe has enhanced her appreciation for art, design, and architecture. Throughout her teaching career, Silvana has participated in workshops and taken courses whenever possible, exploring the potential of clay with functional, decorative, and sculptural investigations. Her recent work is focused on abstract sculptural forms that involve light and shade as an important element, combined with embossed textile patterns.

The Creative Directions strengthened her commitment to her process and has allowed her to focus on a concept and explore it in depth, under the mentorship of Angelo di Petta and with the support of her peers.
