Angela Velleca is best known for her enigmatic females and their fragile silhouettes transforming into trees. Her artworks are sensual and conveyed a range of emotions, symbolised fertility, restless dreams, and reflect the artist innermost feelings. Angela is inspired by the Expressionist and Surrealist movements.
