Sovera Caffettieri

Sovera is an Italian artist, native of Bologna, and has been living in Santa Fe, NM, for ten years. He did not come from art schools; he has been drawing and painting since childhood, raised in a home where both parents were amateur painters. Art has always been his natural language, alongside music and literature.

He refuses repetition. He works on a subject only while it has something real to offer, and once a theme is exhausted, he abandons it without looking back. He does not recreate images to satisfy expectations, trends, or sales. His work is driven by instinct, by what strikes him in the moment, and by what demands to be painted. Each piece exists because it had to exist, not because it was convenient.

His path is direct, instinctive, and uncompromising. Every work is a fragment of his story, his vision, and his life.
