In Ziva Barrett’s artistic practice, she strives to explore the enigmatic and mysterious realms of the subconscious mind . As a surrealist artist, she is fascinated by the uncanny, the dreamlike, and the inexplicable aspects of human existence. Drawing inspiration from a wide array of sources, including literature, mythology, psychology, and personal experiences, she constructs visual narratives that evoke a sense of intrigue, inviting viewers to interpret and engage with their own subconscious landscapes. I invite viewers to question their perceptions and challenge their understanding of reality. She strives to create an atmosphere of ambiguity, where multiple interpretations can coexist, leaving room for personal introspection and contemplation. 

While her work is deeply rooted in the tradition of surrealism, she also draws inspiration from contemporary issues and social dynamics. By addressing themes of identity, power dynamics, and the complexities of the human condition, she aims to provoke a dialogue that transcends the confines of the visual realm. Through her art, she seeks to engage viewers in a thought-provoking journey, encouraging them to reflect upon their own experiences and beliefs.
