One attraction of Vera Costa's work is its organic theme and its concept of opposites - internal/external, body/spirit, human/universal energies. These organic forms are positioned outside of a body, seeming to float in space, or they are presented as if seen through a microscope lens. The circle/oval forms represent beginning and end, infinite and eternal. The red color symbolizes life force, the energy coursing through the body, physicality. She is always inspired by the female related themes and body, specially the inside view of that and the transient cycle of life.
