My work walks from narrative to purely abstract; from insinuations to contradiction , from forest to urban chaotic landscapes,; from drawing to dripping without concern, from individual feeling to general questions . It may seem a bit scattered, but with scrutiny the common threads binding the work together become apparent and auto-biographical.
In my paintings I struggle to express my own vision of reality. It is not a tangible reality, but one that evokes a particular magic in each human being, are in constant conflict and give a place to imagine perhaps, the passing of time in an ethereal atmosphere, in which forces constantly struggle in order to meet their point of equilibrium. This universality of expression allows, perhaps, that the present meets the future.
I want to provoke the viewer to recognize themselves in each part of my work. Trying to look for an interaction even more active between the work and the spectator. It tries to engage him to look for new meaning inside his being.
“Lost Paradise” series becomes an area layered in concepts of ideas, texture and colors on panel wood. “Lost Paradise” is a place we will always look for but we will never find, an existentialist question never asked without a possible answer.
