Existence


Residing in densely populated cities, where we often remain oblivious to our neighbors on the same floor, is a shared experience for many worldwide. Approximately 55% of the global population, amounting to roughly 4.3 billion people, can relate to the challenges inherent in urban living.


While urban areas offer abundant opportunities, quality education, and healthcare advantages, it is imperative to consider the impact on our mental well-being. Are we, as human beings, truly designed to thrive in towering skyscrapers and occupations that breed constant stress? As we continue to evolve, are we the generation that has successfully adapted, or are we merely striving to strike a harmonious balance amidst the chaos for the sake of future generations?

As an artist, my aim isn't to provide answers to these questions, but rather to provoke viewers with these simple questions that often go unspoken. It's only natural for us humans to adapt to our living situations and eventually stop questioning them. As an artist, I'm not advocating for a complete departure from big cities and urban life, as that wouldn't be fair since I myself live in a big city. However, I do want to initiate conversations about how we can improve our current living conditions. Are activities like spending time in small parks or visiting spas on weekends truly enhancing our lives in metropolises? Unfortunately, these opportunities are not feasible in certain cities due to a lack of green spaces, financial limitations, or simply a lack of time due to work commitments.


I utilize Graphic Art as a means to convey my emotions through my artwork. Whether residing in bustling cities or not, the majority of the global population is exposed to various forms of technology, constantly immersed in a visual world of online and printed images. While this technological advancement has its benefits, it also desensitizes us to the abundance of videos and graphics that inundate our phones, laptops, and other devices. Consequently, I choose to primarily create Graphic Print Art so that viewers can experience my artwork in person, free from the confines of screens. In the fast-paced world we inhabit, where encounters with thought-provoking images are rare during our daily commutes, if I can make people stop and think in there busy metropolitan life styles even for a second these moments become all the more significant in my artistic practice.




I would like to express my gratitude to the team at Artist Talk Magazine for this opportunity, as well as to the readers for taking the time to peruse my thoughts.

Always passionate about photography and fascinated by the aesthetics of things, self-taught, i began to take a concrete interest in a specific style of painting, that of abstract painting, in particular (but not only) pouring and fluid art. This scenario has always attracted me, to the point of seduction. Seeing in the lines, shading, contrasts, shapes and images apparently without order and meaning, an interesting context and way to give shape, through a subjective interpretation, to one's own imagination and unconscious. Since it is abstract painting, what can be seen in my canvases obviously should not be subjected to an analysis that seeks, in the observed elements, forms or meanings that must necessarily be reconnected to something specific existing in the real world.
