ARTIST STATEMENT

My work emerges from the meeting point between intuition and exploration. I grew up on a farm in Switzerland, where from an early age I learned to listen deeply to Mother Earth and her rhythms. That connection continues to guide the way I create.

I paint with inks because they allow me to work with movement, chance, and fluidity in a process that resembles jazz improvisation: there is an initial structure, but true creation happens in the space between intention and letting go.

I am interested in exploring the balance between concept and freedom, between control and the unexpected. Each work becomes a conversation with the material, where the inks find their own path and I simply accompany them, listening to what emerges.

Nature is my greatest source of inspiration. I live on a Mediterranean island, and the sea, water, and its rhythms are an essential part of my visual language. I am also fascinated by the invisible world—microorganisms, organic structures, and the patterns that sustain life. I observe these forms and translate them through emotion rather than representation.

I am also drawn to symbolism...
