The Essence Painting

Visual Artist | Abstract Painting | Mixed Media Based in Switzerland Profile Aria Dellcorta is a Slovenian-born visual artist educated in Fine Arts and Abstract Painting, currently working in Switzerland. Her artistic practice explores the expansion of two-dimensional abstraction into spatial experience, investigating how color, form, and material presence can transcend the canvas and resonate in psychological and architectural space. Her work navigates the subtle balance between strength and fragility, stillness and movement, connection and individuality. Drawing inspiration from human psychology, natural forces, and inner introspection, she translates emotional and existential inquiries into abstract visual language. For Dellcorta, painting is a state of immersion — a process where the external world dissolves, leaving only the dialogue between canvas, color, and consciousness. The result is a crystallization of an internal process into tangible form. Artistic Practice Dellcorta works primarily in abstract painting and mixed media. Her practice investigates: The relationship between two-dimensional surface and spatial perception The psychological impact of color and light The dialogue between abstraction and subtle figurative presence Emotional resonance and viewer interpretation Material layering and surface transformation While abstraction remains central to her work, elements of faces or realism occasionally emerge within the abstract field, creating tension between recognition and dissolution. She is particularly interested in how viewers experience her paintings — how they project personal narratives onto abstract forms, how color fields influence emotional states, and how a painting can momentarily suspend time. Her works often incorporate luminescent materials (“Magic Light”), allowing certain elements to reveal themselves in darkness. This interplay between the visible and the unseen adds a conceptual dimension: what is hidden may carry equal or greater presence.
