Artist

About Vio Valova

Vio is a contemporary artist based in the south of the Netherlands. She works across painting, drawing and sculpture, creating poetic visual narratives inspired by everyday observations, travel, memory and imagination.

Her work balances humour and melancholy, combining recognisable elements with subtle absurdity and symbolism. Ordinary people, animals, objects and fleeting encounters become starting points for stories that explore human behaviour, belonging, vulnerability and the quiet drama of daily life.

About this artwork

A surreal mixed‑media work on paper capturing a moment of pure absurd ritual — a ceremony, a weird holiday nobody asked for, where a lobster becomes a symbol of something that even the lobster doesn’t understand.
The scene feels like a strange celebration invented by a parallel universe, a party whose rules make sense only to those already inside it.
Black‑and‑white line work collides with loud, ceremonial red, giving the piece the atmosphere of a surreal festival poster from a world that doesn’t exist.
This piece belongs to my ongoing series of surreal works on paper, where humour, symbolism, and psychological tension collide in a world that is anything but logical.
