Explore Utah artist Samantha DaSilva's journey inspired by volcanoes, dirt and salt, reflecting life's impermanence.
SALT LAKE CITY — Samantha DaSilva infuses her art with a pretty concrete sense of place — specifically, dirt, sawdust and salt.
Once she moved because of a real volcano. DaSilva and her second husband built a small home on Hawaii and, in 2018, lava chased them away. "It really kind of throws your mind and your body for a loop when you can't count on the ground beneath you staying still," she added. "That's something that we take so for granted, and when you can't rely on that, it's really challenging."What consistency she lacked, DaSilva, who now lives in Salt Lake City, found in the art studio.
