Participating Artist

  1. Journeying into some unknown territory, artist Vania Evangelique is currently navigating her practice, slowly, tenderly, and organically.

    As Zeal Eva, she’s worked within the realm of painting, photography and curation being a visual storyteller who celebrates the black experience through artworks that bring to life a nostalgic feeling of home. Her work, being deeply rooted in personal history and the histories of the communities that she navigates, she explores the intersections of the natural world and the built environment that highlight shared experiences, document the present and look towards the future.

    As an artist, her work has been exhibited in solo exhibitions including Today//Yesterday at Bunker Projects and Gentle Landing at Silver Eye Center of Photography. A collaborator with Associated Artist of Pittsburgh, Boom Concepts, she previously served as Head Curator for The Coloured Section Arts, co-curated 2 exhibitions with the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, was artist in residence at BrewHouse Association, and curated Lay Bare through the curatorial residency at Brew House.

    Currently embarking on what we will call a “cocoon phase” in her artistic journey, Vania Evangelique is working to rediscover, to find, to seek new ways of being both an artist and a person in a way that feels like home all while letting love guide the way.
