Manuela Valenti

In my artistic journey, I embark on a visual exploration of the world, capturing the essence of the places I've ventured and the people I've encountered. My work is a celebration of the diverse landscapes and candid moments that have left an indelible mark on my soul.

Contemporary landscapes, inspired by my travels to the picturesque regions of France, Italy, Spain, and the United States, are at the heart of my creative expression. Each canvas is a portal to my cherished memories, inviting viewers to step into these vibrant and evocative settings. I seek to convey the atmosphere, emotions, and nostalgia of these places, allowing my audience to experience the beauty and serenity I felt during my journeys.

In 2015, Manuela's 17-year-old special needs daughter passed away unexpectedly, leaving her in a deep depressive state. Heartbroken, Manuela hanged her brushes and withdrew from the art world for nearly a decade. Now, in 2024, Manuela is making her much-anticipated return to the art scene, bringing with her a renewed passion and a profound sense of purpose.
