Fashion Painting

I am convinced that an artist should not only evaluate for his historian but above all for his futuristic potential; that's why instead of a list of things done I prefer to expose some personal reflections. In artistic language the most difficult thing is to find the right way to convey a message that gives life to a process that starting from the perception of the idea, allows us to follow the whole path: eyes-mind-heart-shape-color, because the ideas and works are born of people and their ability to communicate passions, feelings, dreams and visions. Since the early years of school I have cultivated the desire to represent the world of the surrounding nature, to reproduce comics and figures, to express emotions through drawing and colors. They are of the sign of Gemini and therefore with a multifaceted personality that presents an intrinsic duality: light and shadow, soul and intellect, materiality and spirituality, two opposite sides, two aspects that can not be separated and which also characterize the artistic poetics. I chose to make art without a sense of protagonism, taking care of the preparation through self-experimentation and the search for an aesthetic form that gave substance to my inner dynamism. My current works are handmade with mixed oil and collage on canvas technique. At the center of the work is the female figure in oil painting overlays made of collage. Only the complexion is depicted in oil, while the clothes are made from the background, painting only the shadows and the lights. The final result brings together pictorial art and advertising art in a contamination of different languages that produces a new linguistic code and teaches to look at the city and its inhabitants as a laboratory where to draw "fragments" of everyday life that are transfigured into a space of memory that establishes and transmits the contemporary way of life to history. Advertising posters, glossy images of status symbols, movie trailers, reality shows, photographs and news of wars, natural disasters, terrorist acts but also ordinary women and men, objects and products that every day's everyday life is full of title in pictorial compositions. The works are therefore loaded with the modern existential level that can be enjoyed by today's viewers but above all able to pass on the contemporary way of life to future generations.
