Presentation of recent works highly influenced by a post war abstract painting movement.

My painting explores pure gesture and the energy of movement. Inspired by Lyrical Abstraction, I aim to reactivate this pictorial language within a contemporary context. Each work is created in the moment, through a process of total improvisation where chance and control converge. The act of painting matters as much as the result: each canvas is a trace of lived intensity. While my work resonates with the legacy of a great master, it asserts its own identity, shaped by my time and personal experience.

Maintaining visual creation within the confines of human emotional territories has never been more relevant. 

 

Dissociating from configurations to convert emotions. Depicted by unconscious movements interacting with material and textures, emphasising flaws.

Allowing the eye to roam around the canvas limits along the spreads and stretched prominent painted marks. Throwed directly out of the tube, used a a tool itself upon a nuanced and captivating background.

“I believe there is a human desire to find a meaning in things, whether in a work of art or in real events. If an explanation is
not apparent, we will invent one. I use visual ambiguity as a way to explore this aspect of human nature.”
