My painting is expressed both in the figurative style and that of the abstract. The figurative to tell things simple and give an accessible readability to my feelings, my dreams—it is a simple and effective story. The abstract allows for freedom of movement and expression. The canvas becomes a space that directs the subconscious, a […]

I am a young Mexican artist, travelling in Sub-Saharan Africa for over 7 years, with the character Mikinemi, inspired by the famous Catrina, this offers a free space of overlapping imaginations and cultural experiences which allows all of us to arrive at our own interpretation of my experiences and so forth. Like Catrina, the original character, a traditional Mexican symbol, […]

There’s a sigh of poetry in the painting of Franco Barrese with unmistakable symbols of his soul. in Barrese’s pictures, John Lennon and his symbolic song “Imagine” become emotions to explore, to contemplate utopia and cultivate hope. His colors have a way of going  straight to the heart, where everything is clear and nothing is […]

A painter in love with light, beauty, good and just, Armelle Bastide D’Izard paints life. From her ladies in hats, to her farmers market scenes and landscapes of South of France, all her paintings vibrate. In her abstractions, she paints the world from within, bringing an initiatory journey to a hedonistic and positive spirituality. It […]

Oscillating between techniques in the past has led me to combine traditional art with more modern techniques, creating the mixed media found today in my artwork. Art being the freedom of expression of the soul, I hope to express my profound and intense nature by the contrasts and intensity of my colors. I wish to […]

See the world through my eyes… People always had a basic need to create things for several motivations and reasons. Things that still exist today communicate the past – messages about nations, special places, events or relationships. They are signs from the past that tell us stories, whether real, fictional, or even of spiritual encounters. […]

I was born in Switzerland and have lived in Italy since 1984. In 1999 I started to show my paintings in exhibitions held in Italian cities such as Turin, Rome, Florence, Milan, Venice, and several others. According to art critics my works have a strong evocative power, sometimes recalling detached frescos, maybe due to my […]

The presented work displays an example of “Visual Space Polyphony” I’m working with.  The basic question to consider in this respect is how something like a form changes when it is placed from one reference system into another, and what are the resulting visual interactions connected to the change itself. When, say, a form moves […]

My art is relational. I have always been fascinated by creation myths and I perceive the universe as having evolved from one catastrophic event. From one point, everything emerges, with the best scenarios trying to rush to completion. I’m drawn to experimenting with combinations of elements, sometimes alluding to air, earth, fire, and water. I […]
