Artwork title : "Festa de sorrisos e de cores"

Nature is an atmosphere that surrounds and surrounds me, brings me peace.
As John Ruskin says, nature paints for us, day after day, pictures of infinite beauty if we have eyes to see.
I am constantly inspired by her.
I try to show something new and, at the same time, familiar to remember this beauty that touches me so much and that humanity insists on destroying.
I imagine the landscape as a flowing, lush mosaic of flowers.
I explore geometric and organic shapes of a sometimes imaginary, sometimes real nature, twisting and floating together in an attractive environment.
I try to create an ethereal, familiar place.
The drawings are always in black and white.
The white, the base, and the black act as a thread, linking the lines and the tiny details in a kind of meditation until an unexpected balance emerges.
In the collages, the shapes that previously represented the full against the void become a loose element in a larger background.
Colors, textures and lines enter this background, involving and balancing this landscape and showing that
the harmony of the human being with nature is an imperative of our existence.
