Born in Buenos Aires, Silvana Chiozza lives and works in Rome. She began painting at just 5 years old with argentine master Battle Planas, following her training besides her university career in medicine.
Once in Italy she decides to left medicine to dedicate herself entirely to painting, specializing in landscapes.
She makes glimpses of Rome, and views of the Tuscan countryside made in oils. In this stage her works reach a synthesis that precedes the transition to abstraction, characterized by the representation of places without human presence, silent, and suspended in time. Around 2013 she begins creating informal abstract works using mixed and experimental techniques, carrying out contaminations with various materials. She creates "colorfield" material surfaces finding inspiration in Mark Rothko and also from the works of Manolo Valdez. This phase is followed by a subsequent one in the search for a fusion of figuration and abstraction. Returning to the landscape again and her favorite places from a new angle, creates aerial views, works with spatula with short brush strokes, creating vibrant surfaces, suspended, silent and dreamy atmospheres.
Her works are present in public and private collections. She has participated in collective and personal exhibitions, and competitions in Italy and abroad (Rome, Bologna, Genoa, Florence, Noto, Messina, Catania, Cosenza, Capri, Sulmona, Terni, Assisi, Cetona, Capalbio, Buenos Aires, Usuaia, Barcellona , Marseille, Arles, London, Sophia, Cologne, Seoul, Tokyo). Her work has been reviewed by critics: Gianni Garrera, Massimo Scaringella, Carlo Fabrizio Carli, Paolo Cicchini, Rosa Maria Ravera, Rafael Squirru, Jose Emilio Burucua, and Enrique Gené.
