Paola Telesca

In my work I am always looking for beauty and poetry even if some subjects I deal with are full of pain.
I have always focused on the observation and search for visual expressions in themes that are in some way related
or connected to movement and transformation, i.e. movement and transformation through forms, kinetics, emotions, human body and current events, moving from personal stories to collective consciousness.
I focus on emotions and feelings, on the duality of things and the search for balance. A balance that comes and goes ... and yet is never permanent.
Polarities can be found in the majority of my works.
