I believe that art can heal.
I believe that the symbolic level
is a universal and peaceful space where to stand and meet. From there,
I paint my perception of the "invisible", feelings and thoughts,
energy and sensations, to show, share and inspire. These images come from
within, sometimes completely improvised, and allow a heart to heart communication.
I believe that our bodies are our first homes, shells, vehicles, and that
our senses allow our primal communication with the "outside world"
and other beings. Through our addictions to stress, our busy minds absorb
all the available life force and govern our decisions. I believe that,
too often in our megalopolis & structuring cultures, the bodies are
suppressed. I believe that my paintings are charged with a graphic playfulness
and a nurturing sensuality. Through my work, I want to invite the viewers
to open themselves up, to dream, trust, feel and play. I address whoever
is willing to explore life and their own creative journey.
My art is both a daily exploration within of the mystery of life, and
an act of love.
