Introduction
Each piece is a portal of remembrance, holding the imprint of a moment, a place, a soul.
Soléva began as a private collection: a deeply personal curation of art, jewelry and sacred objects. Today it is an intimate yet far-reaching curatorial brand, bridging creators and collectors across three continents.
We honor light: how creators see it, capture it, and share it through their work. Every piece is chosen and presented as an offering for those who wish to remember.
Soléva. “Sol” (sun, light) + “Eva” (eternal life, the vessel).

Moon-Lit Medusa
Blown by the hand of Massimiliano Schiavon. Softness suspended inside permanence, ringed in gold, returning light long after the room goes dark.

Select a work to read its details, price and availability. Viewings can be arranged in person by appointment or privately by video.
Simon Johns paints doorways, balconettes and shopfronts at the hour they are most themselves. Iron, plaster and cable are drawn with the patience of a portraitist, so that a canvas does not describe a street, it returns you to it.
Casco Viejo is the first chapter of 20 Years, 20 Cities, a life’s work following the power of light from city to city. Soléva holds this first collection of originals in its golden archive.

Curation Services
A space to remember, connect and collect.
Beyond individual works, Soléva offers private curatorial services for collectors, residences, hospitality spaces and selected projects. We work closely with each client to understand the space, its purpose and the story they want to build, then bring together artists, materials and works that create a meaningful dialogue with one another and with their surroundings.
Some engagements begin with a single piece. Others evolve into an entire collection.
