Biography
Through art I try to capture emotions, thoughts and experiences that go beyond traditional constraints. My inspiration is drawn from the world around me, whether it’s the vibrant beauty of nature or the complexity of human relationships. Working in the studio allows me to constantly explore and evolve. It is an adventure of personal discovery and development, experimenting new materials, techniques and concepts. The process of creation is just as fulfilling as the final work.I expres my feelings painting what I know – figures (human and animal), still life and landscape, but with a different personal approach, in an abstract line, in a chromatic out of conventional patterns. I quickly move from a realistic register to the abstraction and stylization of the real shapes we are used to. Stylization, unlike idealization, is not aimed to beautify, but to emphasize its characteristics by eliminating non-essential particularities. The purpose of transforming the organic shape into an abstract, synthesized one, has the role of revealing the inner, divine part, resulting as a way of spiritual communication. I build the compositional elements singularly, introducing them in various combinations, creating for each work an ensemble of sketches (shapes and colors), which I organize into a single large shape whose role is to transmit the compositional message.
