About
I am Silvi Lott, a psychologist, teacher, and plastic artist. I graduated from the Emilio Petorutti School of Visual Arts in my hometown, Pergamino, Buenos Aires province (1991), and obtained a degree in Psychology at the Universidad del Salvador in Buenos Aires (1997). I complemented my training in arts in Norma Deville’s workshop and then in courses and workshops of various plastic techniques. Psychology and arts are in constant dialogue throughout my career, in my artistic practice as well as in my work as a teacher.
I have lived in three countries: Argentina, Spain, and the United States. In my trajectory through different cities, I have worked in diverse fields: in the implementation of training programs in multinational companies, in psychological care and as an art teacher in educational institutions, non-profit organizations, and independently. I currently participate actively in residencies, exhibitions, and competitions in different cities around the world.
