Titolo: TRISTE dimensione cm 40x50 tecnica olio su tavola anno 2015 ho iniziato a ritrarre i cani di mio zio Giovanni ho capito che volevo superare un altro ostacolo, quello dell’apparenza. I petit gascogne saintongeois sono cani da caccia al cinghiale e sono allevati e cresciuti per quello scopo. Ho scelto di dipingere proprio questi cani perché li ho voluti guardare oltre le apparenze: con occhi diversi ne ho colto il carattere, ne ho fermato l’esuberanza, la pigrizia e la timidezza, la loro eleganza nel porsi di fronte a me… in quest'opera ho ritratto Nobile in un suo momento di tristezza, forse non voleva che io lo fotografassi, non ne poteva più visto che quel giorno non smettevo di inseguirlo per fargli delle foto che poi mi sono servite per fare il suo ritratto Uso le velature quando dipingo, ovvero strati sottilissimi di colore perché molto diluito, che stendo sul dipinto man mano che asciuga, per ottenere effetti di trasparenza e trasformare il colore sottostante a mio piacimento. Per conquistare questa particolare tecnica e ottenere i risultati che desidero, ci sono voluti moltissimi anni di esperimenti che non sono ancora finiti. Come quella volta che volevo ottenere una superficie molto liscia e scivolosa su cui stendere i colori ad olio, appunto in velatura… Ma invece di usare la solita colla ho steso una vernice adatta ad essere riverniciata e così sono riuscita ad ottenere un effetto che mi piace moltissimo! opera presentata alla collettiva Animali & altre storie SPAZIO ARTE ‘ Angiolino Spallanzani’ Barco di Bibbiano (RE) nel 2019 non incorniciata ma può essere appesa alla parete perchè è dipinto su di un telaio in legno firmata sul retro certificato di autenticità dell'opera su foto firmata dall'artista per spedizione extra UE occorre aspettare autorizzazione del ministero dei beni culturale e ciò potrebbe comportare il ritardo di qualche giorno

I was born in Parma, Italy's little Paris, and ever since I was a child I loved spending my afternoons among tempera and brushes, experimenting with my creativity on stones and walls. The inspiration and desire to paint was great, so for six months I attended a drawing course with Maestro Gianni Melegari. His teachings helped me perfect myself and find my way, which I built on rigour and constant commitment. In 1999 came my first major solo exhibition entitled I mnemagoghi, or 'memory arousers'. Memories with immense evocative power were the real protagonists of this artistic series of mine. I subsequently collaborated with several art galleries until, in 2004, the San Lorenzo Art House chose me to do a cultural exchange with a group of US artists. In the summer of that same year, I left for Miami where I had the honour of being present at the Art Center and participating in the group exhibition inspired by the city. My artistic research never stopped and, in September 2009, at the Eleonora D'Andrea Contemporanea Gallery, I presented the series ...A nudo in which I stripped my art and investigated the concept of inner beauty. That event was a success and, a month later, my installation arrived at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Lucca. Over the years my way of making art has changed a lot, but what has always remained constant is the modus operandi. I use an ancient technique, that of oil painting, and I treat my works in every part, starting with the construction of the support. I highlight the parts of the painting that serve me to express the message I want and leave others incomplete to give free interpretation to those who observe them. My free and constantly evolving art gives birth to works pervaded by an original and intense poetics that, between silence and energy, I dedicate to the power of life. I never strive for perfection: it is the depiction of tensions and details rich in material touches that gives strength and meaning to my compositions. I like to work with themes, even very different ones, in which I put my whole self in order to stimulate my imagination and that of the observer without reserve. Through painting I feel I can completely express myself, my inner world, my fears, my dreams.
