"Eva"

 

Ivonne Carreon-Ibáñez graduated from New Mexico State University in 2015 with an Interdisciplinary Studies Degree in Anthropology, Psychology, and Studio Art. She also journeyed through a summer pre-medical program at the Universidad del Azuay in Cuenca, Ecuador, in 2009. She graduated from Gadsden High School in 2003 and pursued culinary arts studies at Johnson and Wales University in Miami, Florida. Ivonne had the privilege to study under Reiki Master, Dr. Patricia McClure, in Las Cruces, NM, achieved Reiki I Certification in 2016.

Her love of art began at an early age.  Her siblings immersed her in painting, drawing, watercolors, photography, clay play, and other forms of creativity.  As the youngest of four, she soaked up the different perspectives each of her siblings shared with her. Ivonne also learned that her maternal grandmother often sought a combination of Christian prayer and traditional native healing to bring relief to ailing children with “mal de ojo” or “evil eye” or other maladies. This inspired Ivonne to seek the power of healing, to help her community as her grandmother did. 

This art was born to assist in the treatment of mental health disorders.  The human body is programmed to heal in various ways, some of which are unknown to humans.  How a piece of art is conceived by an artist can be conveyed to the viewer and affect the human spirit.  Often times, it is said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and while it may be true; the energy released from that artist is channeled to the viewer. With this said, it is important to create healing art for those who are unaware of the healing powers that come from exposing themselves to art. 

Nero - Quantum Art is art created to heal the audience subconsciously.

​

Metaphysically, art will heal at a neural-spiritual level intended for the viewer to recall self-love. When the human achieves it,  the universe conspires to heal the soul from illness. It is a form of medicine...the sitting and viewing of artwork… allow the transformation to begin.
