Melissa DiVietri, or Blue Eye Queen, is an artist, advocate, and builder. Born with a rare condition that affects her spine and mobility, she learned how to endure, how to rebuild, and how to create her own door when none were open by shaping her pain into color, movement, and presence. Melissa's abstract paintings carry the weight of survival and the light of resilience, each layer holds memory, ache, victory, faith, and the discipline of getting up again. Meant to be felt, not analyzed, her work is emotional, physical, and invites connection. Earning a Bachelor of Science in Engineering allowed her to develop the technical foundations which influence her creations —from the layout of her studio for independent mobility, to the layered composition of canvases. Beyond her art practice, Melissa develops automated bot systems and AI-driven language tools, using technology as a bridge for education, support, community-building, and accessibility. For her, creativity is not confined to canvas; it is a structure, a network, a movement.
Her work has been exhibited internationally in galleries and public spaces like Detroit, Miami, Colombia, Bali, and also in digital and metaverse environments, where art becomes borderless and accessible. In addition to exhibitions, Melissa has collaborated with both grassroots organizations and global brands such as Yuga Labs, TedX, Google, Mazda, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi, where she bridges creativity, storytelling, and accessibility with digital innovation.

There’s a heartbeat that never stops—an inner rhythm that keeps you alive through chaos and calm alike. This artwork is my reminder that passion doesn’t fade; it hums beneath the noise, waiting to rise again. Relentless isn’t a choice—it’s the nature of those who refuse to quit.
Medium: Handmade non-toxic acrylic painting, transformed with generative AI, abstract expressionism
