On so many levels, her paintings are expressions of belief in the greater good, offering hope, encouragement, and reassurance to all. Inspired by the fundamental tenets of Catholicism, Nives's art reminds us of the reverential nature of daily life, especially with respect to the mother figure, exemplified at its zenith by Mary, the Mother of God-- reverence that is embodied in the symbolic role of flowers as tributes and manifestations of love, devotion, and respect. Much more than ordinary still-lifes, the paintings of Nives are meditations on the sanctity of life itself. By highlighting the singular beauty of individual flowers against monochrome backgrounds-- flowers like Roses, Mimoses, and Clematis-- she reminds us that no matter how difficult or challenging events may become, divine glory and resplendence inevitably prevails. When you experience her paintings, you can't help but rejoice in their undeniably uplifting radiance, and be reinvigorated by their message. About the exhibition "May is the month dedicated to the Mother of God (Mary is celebrated in May with daily rosary and litanies prayers….). Through the history catholic believers have shown in different ways their respect and love towards the Mother of God. Every area has developed is own customs. Sculptures and pictures of the Blessed Virgin Mary are also today decorated with fresh and varied flowers. In the history, in the tradition of various peoples every flower has been interpreted in its own meaning and in the same time accepting an own significance. Each one became, in its own way, the sign of love towards the Holly Mother (Sunflower - Faith, Lily - Purity, Tulip – Prayer, Myrtle - Engagement, and Violet - Humiliation, and Moss – Love towards intimate….). In the occasion of the celebrations of Mother’s Day, Knives is presenting herself with the exhibition Flowers for the Mother, modest, openhearted, humble and unselfish woman, mother, friend. Knives have been born in 1959. Since her childhood she dedicated herself to painting, ceramics and is also composing poems. Her painting is figurative, full of meditation on the content and on the story, as also about how much the story can be complex and stratified, although realized on a flat media as the picture in fact is. As some of the main characteristics of her creativity, are emphasized the variability in treating the picturing forms and ideas, as also the exploration and change of the materials selection and techniques. The figurative expressions, in her paintings, are outstandingly polyvalent and diversified. Flowers for Mary are a delicate, fluttering and easy exhibition. The theme is the flower; Grown on a lawn of religious prayers to God’s Mother. All paintings in acrylic technique on linen, although inclined to experimenting, even to unexpected thematic changes, to the realisation of this exhibition, after longer meditation on the content, on the story and on the technique, she approaches with great consistence. She has found the initial inspiration in the popular heritage and folk customs, where every flower symbolically becomes a present to the Holly Mother. The red rose, the yellow mimosa, the violet saffron……a pop-art play of colours and floral decorative motives on a uniformed base. Travelling between two spaces (herself and out of herself) her personality has been reflected in her paintings that are reflecting the vital situations, visions and impressions as meditation and gratitude in prayers to the Mother of God".
