JOYA NIDO’S ARE ON TOUR …

JOYA NIDO by Miriam Slaats
What once began as an everyday object has been liberated by Miriam Slaats from its obvious function. It is no longer a ‘thing’ that serves, but an ART object that speaks. JOYA NIDO is a work of art that escapes rules. The name JOYA stands for the jewel — the sparkle that lives within every human being. NIDO refers to a nest: a place of origin, birth, and taking flight. Together, they form a symbol of radiant freedom of life, expressed in a way that feels natural to you.
JOYA NIDO invites you not to remain fixed in your way of looking, but to let go. This artwork asks: What happens when I turn the world upside down? When I tilt my own perspective? Within JOYA NIDO lies that very invitation. It is a monument to freedom and imagination, a tangible reminder that art is not only meant to be admired, but above all to be experienced and lived.
Upright, upside down, standing, lying, on the wall, in a corner or on the floor — wherever it is placed, it transforms the space and hopefully your gaze along with it. The object challenges you to re-examine your relationship with art: not passive observation, but active play, shifting, and wonder, through a renewed perspective on seeing and experiencing ART.
