As a visual artist, I've worked with a multitude of materials, but my style has naturally evolved towards abstract subject matter, bursting with color. Oil pastels and watercolor pigments, in a variety of media, became a turning point in my work, helping me to define my style. Nevertheless, my art is lively and oscillates in subject matter.
The "resistance" created by the oil pastels, on the surface of the paper, makes the areas indelible and impenetrable, leaving limited space for the pigments. The visual results are colorful landscapes that the eye hovers over, trying to capture the image as a whole, reminiscent of Abstract Expressionism, a period I love, especially artists like Lee Krasner, Helen Frankenthaler and Joan Mitchell. In this series, the idea that something existed in certain mediums, coupled with new materials, which must now coexist on a new surface together, has become for me a metaphor for life and relationships: this work represents, for me, a colorful manifestation of the space between us all.
My latest works sometimes seem to go beyond the form. The idea of relationships persists and the aesthetic result is a bit more 'messy'. I use palette knives to apply paint, they are tools that help me to destroy, mix, juxtapose and repair all at the same time.
If "space is silence" as Zao Wou Ki said, then I would call my work rhythmic because harmony is always my goal: the harmony and value of the palette and space.
