Artist Statement

My work explores the intangible and incorporeal nature of human emotion through the representation of anonymous figures. For over thirty years, I have used painting as a medium to capture the quiet, universal moments that define our daily lives.

I begin by photographing people whose gestures and rhythm captivate me, grasping the essence of a fleeting moment. These individuals are then translated onto the canvas and placed in vibrant, colorful worlds. By leaving their identities anonymous, I invite observers to project their own experiences onto the
work and connect with the shared emotions it conveys: loneliness, joy, fear… and very frequently, peace.

In the past years my creative process has shifted from a planned approach to one of intuition. I now embrace a more spontaneous method, allowing paint and form to emerge without a predetermined
path. This change has brought about a formal evolution in my work, transforming my backgrounds into rich, textured surfaces that serve as co-protagonists with the figures. I am excited to continue this exploration, allowing my work to grow and unfold in new and unexpected ways.
