"Path of nonvioilence" Painting

Artist Biography – Elizabeth Roman I am a French-Peruvian artist, activist, and humanist, developing a deeply committed body of work grounded in social resonance, poetic resistance, and the raw emotion of lived experience. Through my art, I speak for those whose voices are silenced—those condemned to invisibility. I create not to escape the tragic beauty of reality, but to illuminate it. I use color to tell what many refuse to hear. My visual language is rooted in the streets, shaped by urban culture and the aesthetic power of graffiti, street art, and muralism. I draw inspiration from the works and ideologies of artists such as Banksy, JR, Shepard Fairey, and the honest pulse of the underground scene—Space Invader, and all those who resist with a spray can and a vision. Like them, I believe in truth, integrity, and the power of visual protest. Entirely self-taught, I practice figurative painting and generative art using AI as a medium—not as a shortcut, but as an extension of my creative soul. Whether on canvas or screen, each work is a labor of love and necessity, crafted over time with meticulous care and intuitive precision. I am a perfectionist, a tireless worker, and fiercely devoted to my art. Painting has become my companion on the path—it gives structure to the chaos, and purpose to my days. It has saved my mental health more than once. It gives me a reason to exist. Born in Peru, I left my country with nothing but the radical dream of becoming an artist. France became the terrain of that transformation. My journey of exile and emancipation runs through all of my work, turning scars into symbols and silence into form. My work has been exhibited and acquired internationally—in London, New York, Hong Kong, Peru, Italy, Colombia, Brazil, and Miami—and has been sold notably by Maison Rossini. My distinctive style, both tender and confrontational, delicate and unflinching, stands as a testament to art as a peaceful but powerful act of resistance. developing a deeply committed body of work rooted in social, humanist, and poetic resonance. My visual language, imbued with a raw urban aesthetic, aligns with the spirit of street art and compassionate activism. It echoes the voices of artists such as Banksy, JR, or Shepard Fairey, while asserting a unique vision—driven by a search for truth, justice, and light within shadow.
