Shola Carletti

World travelled, Italian artist Shola Carletti, who has settled in Goa, India, paints captivating abstracts in soothing as well as striking colours. Some of the colours appear like a glassy glaze as she works with customized pigments that are a blend of industrial paints and resin. She works with Art Galleries and often teams up with architect and interior designers from India and UAE.

"Research, in the sense of experimenting, was always a powerful drive for me… searching for new and unusual paths in life as well as in arts. The several layers technique that I use in my paintings is an example of my research for new materials… and then comes the mixing… the trials, the mistakes, until I reach a formula that is right for me… and then I start all over again! Every time the empty white canvas is a challenge to step a little onward, to seek for something new inside of me to be brought on canvas."
