ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In this work, the woman, with her feet in the water and her braids and dress fluttering in the wind, appears calm and secure, recognizing herself as part of the earth. The absence of a defined face and her body made up of leaves and branches indicate that nature always provides us with everything, and yet we barely return anything. The birds that surround her head and the moon that illuminates the scene are a symbol of hope and transformation, of acceptance of new challenges as a society.

As a painter I believe that I have a commitment to nature that moves me to express empathy towards all living beings, which is why I try to give my work a sense of search and interpretation of the environment, I also try to capture the idiosyncrasies of the human condition as the freedoms that each one chooses, the vulnerability that concerns us and the intense desire to live. I enjoy using everyday elements in my works to form and assemble it as an allegory, guiding the observer into the painting, so that from there they themselves can discover their interpretation. Currently the main focus of my work is women; the woman as a symbol of strength and tenacity, with elements of flowers and animals that show her living in harmony with nature, evolving in the environment, to try to express the unfathomable, how can it be to have an understanding of the same being. As for the techniques I like to experiment and I am constantly trying to learn new things in this field and then I adapt them to my style or my preferences, in any case what I am most passionate about is combining them, very frequently I use ancient techniques, of which I am a big fan, along with avant-garde techniques, which always generates great results.
