So far, she has done many collective and personal exhibitions: her artworks are defined as an example of portrait sculpture art in between Expressionism and Realism, a unique and original plasticism art( Daniele Radini Tedeschi, Art Critic) .
My sculpture artworks often coincide with different moments of life.
They describe an intimate path mostly crossed by difficulties and inner suffer.
My first works are faces with a mouth open wide as if they would like to scream. They actually loudly scream in a liberating and relieving outburst.
Later on, I explored sails and horses.
Both subjects are strong freedom and evasion symbols.
At the present, I am still focused on sails in quiet or sometimes agi...
