The Walter Art Gallery is pleased to present “Revealing Resonance,” a solo show of works by Bela Fidel from Scottsdale, AZ. Fidel’s body of work is inspired by her experiences living in Brazil, Israel, and the United States. Each of these unique cultures can be seen and felt in the rich layering and texturing of her abstract works.

Fidel strives to distill her truest personal expression through constant exploration, venturing into new territories while staying true to her elegant aesthetics. She searches for new mediums to express different aspects of her cultural background, and she turns to oils, encaustics, acrylic, and mixed media to seek innovation.

Fidel says, “My intent is to create authentic work that reflects my true Being and my passion for my art. I seek an evocative language and mediums that distill the essence of self-expression … I want each glance at my paintings to be engaging and enrich the viewer's experience and, hence, life. I hope my work offers delightful discoveries while enticing the viewer to explore and find beauty and joy.”

Bela has been showing her work for several decades at a variety of art venues in California and in Arizona. Throughout the years she has been awarded many prizes and commendations for her work.
