About The Artwork

The woman's face is surrounded by a texture like the bark of a tree that contrasts with the smoothness of her skin. She is under the bark and emerges suggesting a rebirth to life. The path is not easy but it is in the right place, integrated into the nature of the subconscious represented by the strokes of paint on paper. The work is painted with a mixture of colored oils that result in black and different shades of chromatic gray. In this work there is a subtlety of pink and violet hues within the gray scale. The lights and shadows are the essential. In this series the search is to combine the realism of the female face painted with brushes, managing to convey the expression that I feel at that moment, with precision in the details of the eyes and lips. The abstract background is painted with a spatula, leaving the traces of loose lines that release the subconscious.

My life is art, creating every day. Born in 1973, General Cabrera, Argentina. At the age of 18 I moved to Córdoba where I graduated with a Bachelor of Painting and Senior Professor of Plastic Arts at the National University of Córdoba. I received the Antorchas Foundation Grant and the Ufficio Fapa Grant from Italy. In 2008 I toured Europe for 6 months, visiting the main museums, galleries and art fairs. I lived in Geneva, Switzerland for 6 months and had a solo exhibition at the Tierra Incógnita Cultural Center. In 2015 I was selected to exhibit in Italy and Switzerland where I traveled and exhibited in international exhibitions, at the Castles Biennale and at the Spoleto Art Gallery. I exhibited at the Congress in Davos, Switzerland where I received the "Eclettica" Art Prize and my paintings were also sold. My works were exhibited in different cities in Italy, Switzerland and Argentina. I live in Córdoba where I have my art workshop and I work as a Visual Arts teacher giving classes for children to more than 300 students.
