In 2008, paintings from the series Constructing the Deconstruction were awarded the Gold Medal at the Second International Exhibition of Visual Arts ICSA / Unesco, in Sao Paulo-SP. The exhibition opening was attended by Brazilian authorities and British curator and chair of the Lauderdale House Arts Centre, Peter Galleger, who came specially from England to select Brazilian artists to attend the Second International Exhibition of Brazilian Art in London, in May 2009.
The series Constructing the Deconstruction proposes a reflection on how the contemporary society has been acting in their environment, and the consequences to our planet. The goal is to draw attention to the need for a sustainable way of life, which depends on us, now. Therefore, there is the need to recycle ideas and not just the materials.
The work is inspired by the urban chaos, the manipulation of images, the mass production and the pursuit of the human being by high consumption.
“… Ideas flowing, and tinted images created … the grotesque and delicate … the light and dark … the beautiful and the ugly … the force of nature and vulnerability of man … the construction and deconstruction …”

In 2006, the paiting City of Dreams VII won Honorable Mention at the XVI International Exibition of Plastic Arts of the Proyecto Cultural Sur – PCSur in Bento Gonçalves – Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.
The strength and authenticity of the paintings by VitóriaBiagiolli – where material is transformed at the hands of skilled and creative artist – show a work characterized by the contradiction between the beauty of cities and the urban chaos.
The focus of her work is the relationship between art, contemporary cities and the environment, consistent with the urban problems around us.
Her canvases filled with bright colors blended geometric figures, sketched, cut, recorded in space, becoming images of the city.
The works present a conscious and coherent development of the creative process that draws the attention of the contemporary artistic world.
For anyone following the growth and trajectory of this young artist is easy to identify the suggestive fragments of subjectivity of a person demanding and committed to the maturity, the quest for improvement and magical beauty of the works that aim to build its own space in contemporary art.
