Artist Statement:
“I believe in the absurd, the unreasonable, the experiment, the power of repetition, I’m interested about the imperfections, details, the ordinary, in to not follow determined patterns and create my own patterns and paradigms, I believe from the spontaneous, the sincere inner . I believe in the artistic intention, in intuition, the gesture is the art, the desire to communicate and imagine a language as simple as 2 +2 three. I have a readiness to go contrary to trends, because I do not like the guidelines or follow guidelines, I rather rethink, discover for myself would be my formula. I believe statements should be as radical and ordinary as the art pieces of work communicate, because assuming positions is the transient process of living. My proposals as all my works are the result of reflexion , thoughts which I translate as pieces , some pieces of circumstantial truth within my thought, portraying my reality as I perceive the world around me; contemporaries is what I call ” Romantic Decadence “and” Simul Era ” (* Simul , gen virus , human simulator , skin -masking ) . My exploration is the human condition, in particular to the circumstances of being female and living in a man’s world. As for aesthetics compositions I’m attracted to the vision of the essential elements, fragmentation belonging to a whole (all fragment belongs to an integer, so my aesthetic is to combine figure and abstraction, organic and synthetic, existence is all we can imagine besides what we can substantiate, what we are and what we think can be or not, parts that interweave preserving equivalence , more is more and less is less , the essence of the elements is inclusive and not exclusive.” (text Saatchi Gallery)
