The empress (2021) Painting by Claudia Daminato

Claudia Daminato is a contemporary Italian painter. She is a self-taught painter who rekindled her passion for drawing in 2016, after leaving it behind during her adolescence. Without any formal education in art, these years became a personal journey of exploration and learning, during which she honed her technique and discovered her artistic inspiration.

In her artwork, she draws immense inspiration from nature, although her creativity extends beyond just that. Her primary pursuit is hyperrealism, where she endeavors to infuse life into her subjects, breathing realism into her paintings. Through her art, she skillfully conveys feelings, thoughts, poems, or simply the beauty she observes in the world around her.

Similar to how life unfolds, she believes in blending reality with fantasy in her artwork, allowing room for creativity to flourish. She enjoys creating imaginative backgrounds using stencils, enabling her to recreate the same decorative patterns infinitely, resulting in mesmerizing designs. One particular fascination she holds is for damask patterns, which evoke a nostalgic retro charm. Her paintings reflect her diverse and unique approach, showcasing the fusion of reality and imagination in a beautiful symphony of colors and emotions.
