I am interested in painting to drawing, abstract to figurative and conventional techniques to modern digital techniques. As a woman and a mutable personality, I perceive what surrounds me very much through feelings and emotions, so, cyclically, I express my different modes of expression and my gaze, under different states of mind and different degrees of intensity. Painting is a way of freeing my superficiality by the dynamic gesture and the contrast of colors. Drawing allows me to dig into my bowels and my organic cells and to feel connections and invisible inner networks. Abstraction expresses my senses, my spiritual emotions, and figuration expresses my primary instincts, almost animals. "
