About The Artwork

This painting sums up some aspects of my recent research. It represents a woman that is silhouetted in a silvered, unreal background. She is emerging from a bush of lunarias and, I think, the atmosphere is quite hard to define. I wanted to paint in a descriptive way something that is indefinable. Where is the scene set? What are girl's feeling? I've used a palette based only on white and shades of brown because I wanted to get a delicate mood using a limited range of colors. Essencially, this painting is made of light; the silver background gives the light back while the pearly opalescent of the lunarias creates a vibrating flavor that contrasts with the figure (that is the only part that has a blindish reverberation). Besides, there is a bond between lunarias and women... Moon has always been connected to women, so lunaria plant that gets the name from this planet, can represent women, too. I hope the painting can give a sense of gracefulness and speaks about the female inner world. Oil painting and silver leaf on wood. The painting has a thin frame and is ready to hang.

Transformation, light and the mixing of old techniques with new materials play a leading role in my recent production. The main link between my works is a quest for harmony, an attempt to describe the inner – and sometimes hidden – elegance of trivial matters. Ethereal female figures inspired by ancient Myths, flowers, fruits, peacocks and other pieces of reality are depicted in my bright figurative style that recalls the great tradition of European painting, especially the analytic approach in describing reality that was typical of both Van Eyck and the Pre-Raphaelites. My strokes are normally clean and the images neat, however I sometimes focus on a specific part of a painting, especially when an unexpected element - such as a Plexiglas layer - is inserted into the composition. In this way, the incredible potentiality of oil painting flourishes through the clear lines of a feature, in opposition to the blurriness of another one. My quest towards the soul of things pushes me often toward portraiture, this wonderful game of mirrors where the individuality of the artist merges into the inner self of the model.
