A theme as the hybridization of commercial and
popular images drawn from the media and copy-paste for the
realization of portraits such as evocations.
The masks, here are made as pseudo-collages (
“pretended” cut collage but painted)
The mask is a recurring motif, symptom, anachronistic
displaced thing. It is a conceptual reminiscence.
Mask is something, a form, that returns through
cultures and ages and survives its own death.
There is something pathetic about the masks which are
like “capable of anything”.
Painted as a collage in the artwork it creates a
particular spatiality, enhancing the geology of the construction and
the mutating aspect of someone as well.
Combining intimism with
hyper-mediated production, abstraction and figuration, the
gesturality of pasta and the almost watercolored descriptive form.it
highlights the construction assembly of various faces, various
aspects of someone.
From time to time a thick gestures of paint paste,
traces; pink or black impasto, symbolic on a deliberately very fine,
airy and flat material. The gesture erasing the eyes transforming the
face in an effigy .
Elsewhere, an insulating invading space, of almost
monochrome colors, enveloping the subject, the background and the
figure becoming entangled with a sort of melancholy .
Appearance, identity,
the subject is elsewhere, beyond representation.
Colorfull flowers , animals furs as playfull figures
surrounding and invading the human figure as a hope.
