The colors are everything. and are the reason for why she goes into her studio everyday. She tries to explore the power of Colors. Pia is even inspired by William Morris and patterns from the Middle East. She makes paintings in a difficult time, where there's a lot of things to worry about. She wants to give the viewers some of the beauty in the world, so they can get new energy and go back to the world with new strength and make the world a better place to live in.
