As an artist, I cannot escape the desire to delight in the beauty that surrounds me, not only the obvious one, but the one that hides behind contained eyes, in expressive hands, in those stories that cannot be expressed with words, in a pot of feelings that boils beneath the surface. I approach art as a careful and meditative observer and I use it to tell the stories that I start unveiling in the time I spend with my subjects, always with curiosity and kindness towards them.
I look for presence in my work, each image representing not a fleeting moment but a representation of somebody’s existence, as if they had stayed there for hours, years, many lives. Capturing their essence, the spirit, what lasts.
I enjoy the physical quality of paint to narrate those stories. My images are full of chroma, texture and light, moving oil paints with both freshness and impact. Often, each layer of the painting reveals a different quality of my subject, and also a change of my perception of them. My goal is to express beauty, not only physical but spiritual and inspire the viewer by evoking sensory experiences, feelings and thoughts that connect them to the most common aspects of our humanity.
