ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In the language of modernity in general and abstraction in particular, it has been built on the radical distinction between art and decoration with the sole objective of sublimating the former and denigrating the latter. This distinction, which wanted to be presented as strictly artistic or aesthetic, in reality had deeply ideological roots and, undoubtedly, gender connotations, since historically it was clear that the applied arts had been a feminine space par excellence.

Painting for me has always been a non-verbal language that I do not always know clearly what I want to communicate, but I have always felt the urgent need to do so. My process when working is alone and daily, nourishing myself with my own imagination, which allows me not to subordinate myself to a single form, I like to invent new images and scenarios, my own experiences or those of others give me ideas, I always face the canvas in white with no project in mind other than to continue, stain and thought merge into one, I have no planned answers, the path is full of multiple changes of direction, many hours of contemplation, decisions and actions, I limit myself to suggesting and not forcing an objective, guided by instinct in the first place but always trying to find the perfect fit between the solution and the intention, a search that I also try to achieve through emotional sincerity, color channels emotion, I think of colors and the drawing contains while providing different readings, I like to take the viewer's eyes from one place to another on the canvas without discovering everything immediately. My painting deliberately proposes a state of tension between the visceral and the mechanical and juxtaposes the industrial with the habitable, reflecting the contradiction so typical of the urban environment, articulating a story based on the historical tension between abstraction and figuration, a tenuous interval between the figurative and the abstract creating an imaginary space that configures itself through the proposal of a language inherited on the one hand from academic training and on the other from the representation systems of comics, graffiti and science fiction cinema.
