Emilia Silvetti

My painting is an attempt to reflect the constant pursuit of balance and tension. I am now more open to the power of improvisation and perception in the practice of art. As a result, my compositions have mutated into abstract and my work with colour was empowered.
When painting, my focus is on shape overlapping, an emphasis on colour, contrast and details on composition. I am interested in exploring the relationship between the parts and the whole, developing images that allow for multiple readings and approaches. Also a kind of game between control and flow, stillness and conflict, but always intuitive.
From a time to now the close up to my own practice is being reseted as something even more vital, fresh and gesture. As a result of these reflections, more lines, layerings and glazes are appearing slowly and some shapes are softening.
I like to create landscapes: rare, broken and unfinished. I would like that settings can build universes, that don´t exist or can even imagine.
