I will not be commanded Print

The paintings of Swedish born, Cyprus-based abstract painter Carolina Alotus (b. 1970) are luminous, fantastical arenas in which beauty and harmony negotiate fiercely with chaos. Her compositions are active and energetic, sparking visual tension from unexpected relationships between colors, forms and textures, and from the feverish juxtaposition of seemingly disparate mediums and techniques. “As an abstract artist, my work is a continuous exploration of emotion, movement, and the intangible forces that shape human experience. Created through a deeply intuitive process, my paintings emerge organically, guided by instinct rather than predetermined outcomes. I embrace spontaneity, allowing color, texture, and form to interact freely, resulting in compositions that feel both raw and deliberate. My art is not merely a visual expression but an invitation—an open-ended dialogue where each viewer finds their own meaning and emotional resonance.”
