TEMPERANZA
Is magic disappearing from the world?
My paintings, drawings, sketches depict women.
They are the witches, the sorceresses, the sibyls, the spirits. They are the magic that fights to remain attached to the world. They are the world that fights to not lose magic.
They are the amazons, the harpies, the dyads, the women raped by Zeus, they are the magic that remains in the world.
Are shown as treasures of experiences and knowledge, objects of creative and pictorial contemplation. They are creatures feared by man, due to their intrinsic relationship with nature. They are sisters, and they resist passing and weaving secrets and stories.
The pictorial space my women live in is constellated by elements of a fantastic and surreal reality, where geometrized and archaic shapes determine a de ned plasticism through the use of a at color palette.
Colors come as a stream of consciousness, some vibrate, some oscillates, some stay quiet. They are part of the psychology of women. They do not shine, they burn. They are not dancing, they are burning.
They keep their childish and playful curiosity, in the traits and in the method used to paint: oil pastels colors.
