My works are full-color brushstrokes born by the deepest impulses and passions, along with the magic and the rapture of the childhood put on a canvas and other surfaces.
I feel that hand-painting can be a cuddle of a surface … then other materials can be added: flowers, precious stones, brilliant powders. I want the result to leave people looking spellbound and enraptured.
I enjoy creating new color harmonies by using various ingredients, taken from cuisine and from make-up. This gives the paintings a quality that is real, concrete, but dreamy.
Circuses, angels, fairy tales, dreams, life, beating hearts, happiness and sadness … all together as a stream of magic and narratives whilst I have a still white canvas in front of me.
Nothing is studied. Everything comes from a primary impulse: sexual and spiritual together, playful and anguished together.
