Tiago Polignac

My work explores the interplay of color, texture, and layering to express the subtle spaces that both connect and separate people. These elements guide my creative process and allow me to focus on the formal and tactile qualities of painting.

I emphasize the visual and physical presence of my pieces—how colors, shapes, and textures interact to create a rich, almost tangible experience. Rather than conveying a specific narrative, I aim to evoke emotion and leave room for personal interpretation. This open-ended approach invites viewers to connect with the work on an instinctive, emotional level.

Color plays a central role in my practice. Each hue is carefully chosen not just for visual impact but for its emotional resonance, adding depth and dimension to the overall composition.

Ultimately, my art is a sensory dialogue—an exploration of human emotion and connection through form, surface, and color.

I am a self-taught painter and a clinical psychologist. In my work, I seek to explore the intersection between the image and the mental processes of visual pleasure.
