Bio
I grew up surrounded by green, immersed in nature.
My gaze was always alert to every detail, every movement, to the light that constantly transforms everything.
My vacations were always spent in Patagonia, searching for the imperceptible, the almost invisible—
that something which, in its simplicity, becomes extraordinary.
Living as an artist is a way of being in the world, a way of perceiving.
It is about tuning one’s sensitivity to catch the most subtle notes.
When I create, I don’t just express myself—
I connect with nature.

My work is inspired by nature, where I discover colors, shapes, and textures full of contrasts. Nature — rich in both sound and silence — connects me to the present
and offers me peace, teaching me about change and transformation.
In each of my pieces, I seek to capture the emotions that arise through contemplation of the natural world.

Curator's Statement
“The birds could still be heard, of course, along with the murmur of hidden waters and the rustle of that vegetative, autonomous world.
But I’m not exaggerating when I say that for a moment, all of it fell silent to me (...)"
Sergio Chejfec, Modo Linterna
Lucila Logioio is a painter of her own photographs. Her approach to captured nature reminds me of writer Sergio Chejfec’s device in Modo Linterna. Almost as if everything around her becomes blurred, she focuses, distinguishes, isolates a portion of the landscape and condenses it into a suspended atmosphere. She places the lens of her camera—much like Chejfec does with his writing—on a fragment of immensity. Later, that photograph becomes a painting, where figure and background let go of their original clarity to merge into a patient, melancholic brushstroke of those grasses that suggest a sense of safety.
The landscape refers to Argentine Patagonia. In the series Pastos del sur (Southern Grasses), she portrays details of meadows brimming with the species Rumex acetosa, or sorrel — a plant with sharp green leaves that has medicinal properties and is used in cooking for its citrusy touch. However, L. Logioio is drawn to its appearance: the flower and fruit of the sorrel have reddish-earthy-purple hues that create a vibrant contrast with the greens and golds of the background.
Patagonia is her inspiration, her habitat, and at the same time, the witness to her unique aesthetic. The process is far from immediate — in fact, it’s quite the opposite. It involves long journeys, attentive wanderings, suspended time. Then come the hours in the studio, the deliberate waits until ideas can finally take form as works of art.
Both her photographs and paintings are tools in her pursuit of elevating the minimal. They are mysterious fragments that capture wild beauty. Through her technique — one that holds both the noises and the silences a painting might suggest — L. Logioio offers us a majestic image of nature.
