ARTIST STATEMENT I have a strong desire to create. I am an abstract artist moved by colors, shapes and textures. All these elements collapse spontaneously together in the canvas according to my feelings and emotions. Where I find inspiration is always a surprise for me. It could be a crack in the asphalt, a piece of fabric or an interior design or a life experience. The triggers are everywhere around. My work starts by applying one layer of different colors. From there I start building with texture, colors and shapes, trying to discover where my portals are and what is the soul of the painting. This process is about layers of feelings and emotions, about a reaction of the prior layer. I want the surface to have the energy to capture and pull the viewer through the portals inside the painting. |
